Tree hugely overgrown

Reported via mobile in the Tree Requires Pruning category anonymously at 20:21, Sunday 26 February 2023 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4265605.

This large tree in front of our house (9 Waldegrave road) is very overgrown. In the autumn storm branches fell off and caused thousands of pounds of damage to our roof, broke the telephone wire and one large branch remains unsafely planted into our front garden. It remains too big and is in need of pruning otherwise I fear more branches could fall on people, cars or houses. Please could this be arranged before the greenery returns? I did report this at the time on the phone and online but have had no response. Many thanks

  • Hi, do you have a timeline on when this will be looked at? There are now branches broken within the tree from recent wind.

  • Please could you update on the timing for these works as it’s been 8 months now? The tree gets bigger and nothing happens.
