"This morning a lorry knocked one of the branches off leaving it in the road. This has now been moved to the grass under the tree. This tree is now becoming a hazard to double decker buses and other high sided vehicles, could you have this tree pollarded as soon as possible before we have a serious accident."

    My constituent told me "This morning another large vehicle came by and dislodged the branch while I was out. My wife and the lady next door went out and gave it a tug and it came down. They have laid it on the grass verge. Photos enclosed. This was how it was found As it is now. Can I leave it with you to arrange collection, thank you."

    Tree now has loose branches which constitute a safety risk. Please could these be removed. Thank you.
