I bet it's Riding road Balmoral, at least I can understand why when they are under power lines.
I have had council prune some for clients along that road ... as you know the new practice is "VEEing" them out for the wires above but many are multi-stemmed as you know ... very hard to know if you have a good fork or not with that species and you get bust outs. The long branches grow at 45degree angle over the front fences of places, ready to bust out so we had them trimmed off and back. My suspicions on many were that maybe 15 year ago they were topped off at 3m high.
It is ugly for sure, I think it would be wise to commence a replanting scheme and start getting rid of them.
Guys, mind you with all the BS I see remember BCC reckons it wants a L5 to write arb reports yet from what I see of the trees worked on you may as well be a welder or mechanic coz aint much making sense.
You want more pics of dead habitat trees right along side roads ... I'll get them, here's a few locations.
Dead tree adjacent to car park and car park entrance, no signage, also hatracked, Murarrie Recreation Ground Murarrie off Wynnum road.
Dead tree, footpath & side of road, Tilley road Gumdale just south of New Cleveland road.
Also, why were most trees in New Farm Park over mulched up the trunks for a number of years? Pseudo mulch volcanoes, recently they have been inspected and the mulch pulled away but that's almost 2 years later and it was because the trees were being assessed by Adam Tom just recently. |
