The Liberal Democrats are demanding the city and county councils take action to clear the backlog of tree pruning and other environmental work.

The backlog has built up due to the coronavirus pandemic and August’s Storm Francis, which saw around 70 trees across the county felled by the strong winds.

There are also problems with getting tree stumps removed after the trees have been felled.

The county council is responsible for all trees alongside public roads and footpaths, while the city council is responsible for maintaining trees on its land.

Please get in touch and send us pictures of any trees that you think need attention. We will then contact the council and push for them to be sorted
