Tree is damaged problem
Reported in the Tree is damaged category by Gloucestershire County Council at 15:57, Sun 31 August 2025
FixMyStreet ref: 8122729.
I sent in multiple complaints earlier this year regarding damage to my car on A46 just above the 40mph sign going up the hill out of Nailsworth. you stated it was to do with trees and Ash Dieback but it isn't. The tree came down onto the A46 in February after a storm. The tree is lying parallel with the road and there are sharp ends sticking out into the road. It has been like this since February with no sign of the tree trunk being removed.
