  • Thank you for your enquiry. The Ash has ADB which sadly there is no cure. A large proportion of the crown is affected which the tree will not recover from as a precaution, a job is raised to have the tree removed and a replacement will be planted next planting season using a different species of tree.

  • Our contractor has been notified to take the appropriate action.

  • May I please ask how to contact the contractor regarding the assigned job date? Thank you.

  • I am sorry, It is not possible to give individual time frames for individual jobs due to the high volume of jobs raised each day, the summer months are our busiest period of the year with the trees actively in leaf. The works have been issued to the contractor for completion as soon as possible.

  • Appropriate action has been taken to resolve the issue.

  • Thank you for your comments and apologies for the confusion. At the time of the site visit for this enquiry there was a total of 4 separate enquiries for the street which a total of 12 jobs has been raised for the street. For this enquiry which had text for a diseased Elm within the street which are none. For the ash OS23 the tree has early stages of ADB and does not meet level of intervention by the % of live crown remaining and is being monitored. However the Ash OS30/32 does meet criteria for intervention based upon the % of live crown remaining and works are raised for it to be removed. The remaining jobs for the street are predominantly basal and crown lifts with the removal and replacement for the next planting season for the dead young tree SO79 Blackbrook lane.
