Tree Stump on the corner of Midland and Wesley Roads

This tree stump in Midland Road, has been pending removal for nearly a year. The FOCUS Team has been advised by the Tree Officer that the delay has been caused by problems arranging and co-ordinating the moving of cables by the Utility Companies.

It was finally due to be removed on Monday 15 September at 9.00a.m. Unfortunately a car had parked immediately in front of the stump blocking access. Despite knocking on many doors, the Tree Officer was unable to find the driver, and the crew from Virgin Media were unable to shift their cable.

The Tree Officer is once again liaising with Virgin Media and BT to agree a new date to remove the stump and reinstate the footway.

The FOCUS Team will be monitoring progress.
