  TPO23/019 Submitted 6 Feb 2023 50 yards away

  Weeping Willow T1 as shown on attached plan (TPO Tree Ident Number unknown) Reduce canopy to allow access for pilling rig to install the retaining wall required for the junction improvement works approved as part of the approved 470 home residential Development known as Whitford Green, Whitford Road, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire We have undertaken air-spade site investigations to determine extent of root growth and geotechnical site investigations have been undertaken to aid the design of the retaining wall. To minimalise the impact of the wall a king post system is to be utilised but it necessary to have three pile locations on the edge of the canopy of the weeping willow to allow access for the piling rig. (See Attached Plan) For the works near the willow tree the piling rig is to be located on the existing highway at a lower level to minimalise the impact and requirement for pruning. The exact extent of pruning will be agreed on site with the Bromsgrove Tree Officer, but from our site visit and the information currently available we would suggest at a reduction of up to 5 limbs by up to 2m of their overall length (6m) to the southern and eastern side of the tree. It should be noted that we are happy to either undertake an all round crown reduction of this tree, or to only prune the limbs that are required to allow access for the piling rig, whichever option is deemed most appropriate by the Bromsgrove tree officer. We would be happy to meet the Bromsgrove Tree Officer on site to discuss this TPO application during the consultation period. We would suggest that condition is attached that requires final approval for the extent of works by the Bromsgrove tree officer. The pruning would be undertaken following the guidance of the tree officer and follow the guidance within BS3998 (2012)
