  6. Thank you We have been working on min Pavement width of 2.5 metres so when the tree grows ect we would end up with around 1.5 as tree is obviously not right at the edge and will have a pit around. We have turned down a request on pavement width issues but seems like he is wanting a specific link to a regulation BS 8300 design of buildings for disabled is the closest i can find but that's still inconclusive. Thanks for the reply's so far.

We have used the question what can you tell us about BS3998 in interviews and only 1 out of 8 had heard of it and the 1 could not give examples of content Good points and how many arb guys and galls actually know what it is never mind have they read it or even do they own it I personally think it is now too big and detailed and know very few folk that have read it P.s It is still a term in the NPTC assessment for prunning:thumbup:
