I reported this item on 29th March 2025. The tree is definitely dead as branches are falling off it. Can this be replaced please? Eric Wilson

Reference number 2840057 I reported this in March 2025. The tree I reported is now stone dead with its branches falling on to the grass verge below it. It is immediately forward of our front door and it is making our house look unsightly. On 31st March you said you had looked at the issue and passed it to your Highways Officers to assess what could be done to resolve the matter. To date I have heard nothing from them or yourselves regarding the issue. Can you PLEASE either replace the tree or just take it away.
