Planning application

Shell Oxford House Service Station Brighton Road Lower Kingswood Surrey KT20 6UP

Granted Reigate and Banstead 24/01567/TPO Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

SEE CONDITION 2 FOR APPROVED WORKS PJL Group work as tree surgeons for Shell UK, the owners of the petrol station Shell Oxford House, KT20 6UP. Surrey Highways have requested Shell cut back their trees adjacent to Brighton Road in order to comply with Highways regulations. Since all the trees are subject to the blanket TPO BAN177 we are therefore submitting this application in order for you to kindly approve our works to address and comply with the Highways requirement. We intend to solely cut back to meet the Highways regs, nothing more. The works will require a major Traffic Management plan to close Brighton Road for cherry picker access and in turn we will endeavour to keep road closer to an absolute minimum. If you agree the works to be essential and approve, kindly note that we will of course carry out all by qualified arborists, we will check thoroughly for both roosting bats and nesting birds and adjust timings as necessary if anything is found on our pre-works ecology survey.
