After contact from a resident a few weeks ago I reported the overhanging tree at the Byron Avenue end of Scott Avenue to the council. A branch was overhanging the pavement and some other boughs looked loose.

Since then some of the material has come down and been cleared away but I have asked for the tree to be inspected to ensure it is safe. I understand that the council have appointed or are about to appoint a new tree officer. There are lots of tree maintenance and planting issues in Podsmead that I would like them to take a look at.

If you know of any tree issues in our area please let me know.
