Planning application
Public Car Park Great Eastern Street Cambridge Cambridgeshire
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.
