Feasibility Study and Tree location Planning undertaken

Following a feasibility study of the streets and green spaces around Westminster in areas highlighted by the Livability Team of Chehire West and Chester a planting plan has been made.Further consultation with individual residents, house owners and tennants is now being undertaken.

The planting will take place in January 2014.

Plans show that around 73 trees will be planted.

Further to discussions whith those that maintain the footway and green spaces it has been shown that planting cannot take place in some areas due to the make up and width of footways together with the proximety of underground services.
