    I have a team member who completed CS30, 31, 38 & 39 coming up to 5 years ago. He completed CS41 last year. I assume CS41 will cover the refresher for 38 & 39 as an upskill... but what about CS30 & 31? Does CS41 class as an upskill for this? Or should I be putting him through a separate ground based upskill or refresher?

    Looks like a good shout, not sure my company would allow us to use it in a public park though... but worth an ask!

    We have a park with around 60 Sycamore in- (makes up probably 60% of tree species in the park), almost all are showing signs of Sooty Bark Disease, all to varying severity. We're going to start removals (and replanting with a new species mix) this year, and plan to have them all removed over the next few years. Will provide our team with appropriate PPE (masks) for the job, no problem there. Will aim to get the work carried out on a damp day too. Anything else I should be doing? Arisings - best not to chip I know, but if the ground crew stay masked up, do you guys think that it would be OK to chip? (not worried about infecting nearby sycamore as they've all had it.. just thinking of the health implications for my team, and the public).

    Sorry for the late response, only just checked the thread!! The town is Thamesmead, south-east london My first suggestion is always to remove the tarmac where its not actually required, which i think management are slowly starting to listen to me on the subject... but of course they're still (understandably) concerned about the liability. I have asked them to look into Flexi Pave, and hoping it is a route they will go down, but 99.9% sure the cost will make it a big fat no 😞

    I've literally only just checked the replies on this thread so sorry for the late response! We wouldnt be able to seek compensation for removal as it would be removal required by us, not Highways or LA (the hard surfacing i refer to belongs to us - we're a housing association but we own the majority of the town, not the LA). Highways roads I've never been approached about in regards to the trees although would be interesting to know if we could claim compensation where it would be required...

    Looking for some collective wisdom here... The company I work for own a significant number of trees within a town, we also own a number of publicly accessible pavements/footpaths/walkways. We've had some insurance claims go through, where people have tripped over tarmac that has been lifted/cracked/damaged by tree roots - not on a path but on a tarmacked strip of land between parking areas - so now we need to action this to prevent it becoming a recurring issue. I have suggested removing the tarmac (it is completely unnecessary anyway) to discourage people from walking on it. But the raised tree roots will still be there and still be a potential trip hazard. I'm sure i've seen some LAs use white paint to denote areas of uneven pavements, yet I have tried to look online for info on this, and whether it is defendable in terms of liability if someone trips over the roots, but I cant find anything! Have I imagined this? Does anyone have any links to precedents? Does anyone have any suggestions or solutions? Of course, money will always be a factor in terms of engineering solutions, and we do remove the worst offending trees where no solution seems to exist but frankly we would fell probably 80% of our tree population if we ended up felling all the trees causing significant damage which obviously we do not want to do! FOR CONTEXT: When the town was originally developed over 50 years ago, a large number of Poplar, Silver Maple, London Plane etc where planted, and in many cases in places that were only ever going to cause problems... We (the company i work for) own the majority of the housing estates including footpaths and some roads (most roads are adopted). We have an awful lot of trees that cause major damage to hard surfaces, paths, paving etc. BUT we dont have a replacement planting budget (i get away with what i can RE planting but not too much). There are talks of a long term replacement planting plan (getting the right tree in the right location) but i dont expect this will happen any time soon.
