I am afraid your contractors are unable to resolve this matter,as they are not permitted to remove the root that is causing the problem. It seems quite extraordinary you have people working on this area, but are unable to resolve it, and will need another contractor to return and dig this up again. wow is that a waste of public money or what!

Where tree roots are of a certain size, works to trim, reduce and remove them must be done by a qualified arboricultural contractor rather than our highways contractor to ensure the tree is not adversely affected and killed in the process.
