drummonds Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Does anyone know what is happening about the street trees that are being removed during the road repairs in Sheffield. In the summer I watched many rather lovely cherry trees being cut down. At the time we were informed that replacement trees would be planted later in the year. However the holes from which the trees were removed were tarmaced over a couple of weeks ago, which seems a strange thing to do if they are about to plant new trees in the holes.

geared Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 You've probably answered your own question really, they ripped them out and then lied about their replacement. Enjoy your tarmac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy your tarmac well that's as maybe. but amey did send a plan showing the type of new tree that was to be put in these holes. they were also rumoured to have been paid £2000 for each tree they replaced. not each tree they replaced with tarmac.

Enjoy your tarmac It would be fine if trees provided wifi, etc. We'd have all the preservation orders we needed. Such a shame they only provide the oxygen we breathe!

taxman Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 This thread should serve as a warning to all those on the other tree thread who blindly believe everything the council and Amey are telling them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet they've pocketed the money for each tree they said they'd replace. :hihi::hihi: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may be lying, but until someone makes the effort to ask them what their detailed plans for replacement are, with regard to the OP's street in question, you are jumping the gun.

GLASGOWOODS Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 They've been moved and replanted down Hillsbro, to accommodate Alcoblogs ever expanding tree Penguin population. There's one in my Avatar enjoying his new home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
