Correct, only whats over road, just those couple of big limbs you can make out in the picture, we are slowly losing this tree, did same job about 2 years ago. Think within another 5 years it will be a monolith.

Dont let it die if its like that, get a retrenchment program on it, there some dark areas in the scars, is it brown rotted heartwood? Fistulina maybe, or Laetiporous. you could keep this old girl going if you get the prune regim right.
