Planning application
8 Victoria Crescent Nottingham Nottingham City NG5 4DA
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
T1 - Beech - Fell and remove the existing tree due to concerns regarding public safety. The tree is immediately adjacent to the public footpath and has contributed to damage and obstruction of the pathway. Pedestrians are currently having difficulty using the footpath and may be forced to walk on the road. This presents a safety concern, particularly for elderly and vulnerable pedestrians.

Fraxinus excelsior exhibiting advanced symptoms of Hymenoscyphus fraxineus. The majority of the primary scaffold branches are infected by this fungal pathogen and the tree is unlikely to recover. Removal of the tree is required due to the foreseeable risk of branch failure, which could impact the neighbouring driveway and the adjacent garage building serving 42 Private Road.
