In the past I used to clear for sight line for infer structure firm, who serviced phone masts.

I didn't release before undertaking this work, that phone masts have to have a direct line from one mast to another.

The problem is that the land owner of the masts doesn't normally object to any tree work,

but the person 2 miles down the road who has a tree in there garden or on there land doesn't allows want the tree reducing or removing for the phone mast.

They need to plan there location better maybe

We had a major link in Hertfordshire that was fading because of a large oak tree that was on the estate that F1 driver Graham Hill used to own.

 

Money changed hands and a mature oak was halved.

 

I wasn't in the tree game then, but it still wasn't a proud moment.

I think I'm right in saying Ericsson took over the management of the masts and were last year putting millions aside to deal with the problem in the article.

Problem being the work went through 5 firms been subbed out each time if you could get the source or the second firm there would be some good money to be made.

 

Talking to the lads who are on site with you when these works are been done the land owners have had some huge payments so the work can be carried out.

Yes there was a few firms involved, the line of sight which subbed out to.

The land owner of the mast are paid well, it the people who own land and trees who have nothing to the mast is where the problem starts.

Especially when its either LA or someone who didn't want the mast the mast in the first place.
