Tree work next to the motorway

[phill]

Evening arbtalk

I've just picked up a private job topping some large conifers but it's right next to the m60 there's no chance of anything going onto the highway but I was just wondering if I need to inform the highways they were carrying out the work or just to crack on with job ?

Thanks in advance

Did a job on the boundary of the m5 big utility's company and was told no need to even put it in the risk assessment

Use a little more common sense than normal.

 

If it was felling would be a little more concerned ours was not

It's a tough call. Inform parties and you may open pandoras box causing delay to project, but it certainly is the right thing to do.

 

How far back are the trees from the motorway boundary?

 

You could say nothing, and also be right.

just crack on with it

if it's windy try and do it when the winds blowing in the right direction save anything blowing onto the motorway
