The largest tree here is far too high
Reported via desktop in the Overgrown trees category anonymously at 12:33, Wednesday 18 September 2024
Sent to Peterborough City Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 6485512.
The tallest tree is far too high and taller than the houses here. Not sure where the roots are going. We have never seen these pruned in the 10 years we have lived here. The whole area is overgrown and unsightly.

Thanks for your enquiry regarding a council-owned tree.
In accordance with the Peterborough Tree & Woodland Strategy 2018-2028, a qualified tree surveyor has visited the site, assessed your request and concluded that there is no need to undertake tree works.
We don't prune or remove council-owned trees because they are considered too big or too tall unless it is deemed to be dangerous.
All council-owned trees are surveyed by a qualified surveyor for safety every one-to-five years, depending on how much the area surrounding them is used. We also carry out maintenance work if it's needed.
For further information please read the Peterborough Tree & Woodland Strategy 2018-2028
I trust this answers your enquiry, however, should you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact Aragon Direct Services.
State changed to: No further action
