Hi Might be worth excavating to area of root damage, the root might not be deeper than you think, if your lucky. If not repofile the carriageway over the area, might have the watch the levels to avoid puddles etc. Kbi flexi pave works well for footpaths

Hi there Is there any standard specifications for plant spacing when do landscape plans? Thanks T
-
Yep, thats what I had to get, our building was deemed low potential so only required 1 dusk survey which didn't find anything. I'm told the reports are reviewed by the LA's ecologist
-
As far as I know you have to licenced, the outcome of the report gives a risk level, think based on the British standards and from that follow surveys made be needed. That's my understanding of it

Well out of 4 other companies i contacted they got back to with a day, while the only other company that got back to was 7 days later. A dusk/dawn survey was also required. So yes and bat report is a bat report but just found them easy to deal with, and the fact they actually wanted my custom

Yeh, I agree its not the best way forward, even though have done this to there own trees. Thanks all

Thanks all Some useful points, although its annoying that the council can pollard there trees, for the first time but we can not, there literally at the side of there street trees. But thinking on, and as stated I should really advise the customer on why it might not be best for the trees in question. Tree

Yeh, they haven't been pollards before, but neither had the street trees until last year, all of similar size and age

Hi All I have a customer who wants his 2 lime trees pollarding, but they area covered by an area tpo and the TO has refused the request, even though the trees are along his boundary with the highway, and the council have recently pollarded all the street trees here. Is there any justification in him pollarding, or requesting this to keeping line with the street trees, there all same age and similar size before they pollarded them. Any help would be appreciated thanks Tree

Not seen with verges but I have seen areas under private ownership but still fall under highways maintenance at public expense (hmpe)
-
Yeh difficult to say if there's a breach as we don't know all the details. Although we assume its a highway verge as its next to the carriageway, I do see locations where the highway and local authority stops at the edge the carriageway and the verge is privately owned, though maybe not that common and as stated already could be private ownership but still falls under highways maintainable at public expenses. I'm guessing that they would have checked recent planning applicants to see if there removal was part of it. Will be interesting to what the councils finding area once they have investigated
-
Although there are planted close, not sure if the species planted will cause future issues, am guessing they have choose this tree species due to it being a smaller, more compact tree. Difficult say if it will ever be problem for drains or cause subsidence in the future, from what I have seen of these else where probably not but each site/location is different. Yes tree wardens can get a little carried away, but they do provide important support and help for the local community and council. I know the council can plant trees anyway on there land they could of explained what they planned and why, it might of saved on-going complaints and a little re-assurance for yourself
