Outside number 1 Poplar Close

Reported via desktop in the Trees category anonymously at 15:31, Thu 19 September 2024

Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 411603.

Trees need to be trimmed to lift the canopy, it is the biggest tree 3rd and 4th tree and it is difficult to walk along the path without branches hitting your head.

  • Thank you for submitting your Highways report.
    We already have maintenance work planned in for this area and the issue will be resolved as part of this work. We are, unfortunately, unable to provide you with a timescale for this to be completed, however, all repairs are prioritised using an assessment matrix in line with our Network Maintenance Management Plan (NMMP).

    We will continue to monitor all defects to ensure the safety of our residents as part of the NMMP which can be found online - http://www.centralbedfordshire.gov.uk/ transport/ roads-strategies/ highways-asset-management.aspx

    Many thanks,
    Central Bedfordshire Council Highways

  • Resident called and asked when the trimming is going to happen as the trees are nearly touching the private property. Resident advised that now the leaves are gone now, and the nesting period is done, and the trees need to be trimmed before the winter sets in. Can you please give us an update?

  • As of yet we cannot provide a date. Due to budgets we are having to prioritise the defects posing a greater risk to the Highway. While we have identified work and wish to carry it out, we can't confirm when this will happen at this stage.
