Planning application

Public Car Park Great Eastern Street Cambridge Cambridgeshire

Awaiting decision Cambridge 25/0788/TTCA Works to CA trees

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

TR02 - Plane (London) (Platanus x hispanica) - Crown lifted to give 5m clearance above ground level, ie. 5m from the level of the footway and up to the back edge of the footway. I wish this to be a repeat operation at intervals for 10 years (ie. I don't wish the permission to default to two years). This is because Cambridgeshire County Council have installed road signs and enforcement cameras as part of the Mill Road Bus Gate scheme. Pruning works are to clear low branches above height of signs and camera sight lines.

As published by the council, reference 25/0788/TTCA

    T1 - Cherry tree - Reduce crown by about 3m, or, if this is not possible reduce the crown where it overhangs 67 Hemingford Road by a similar amount. Reason - This would reduce the overshadowing of the roof of 67 Hemingford Road and also prevent branches impinging on telephone wires connecting to 65 Hemingford Road.
