No update, please cut this tree’s branches. Been too many years of the council not caring for our road. You’ve recently done the trees on opposite roads so why not us?? This will now have to be taken up with Siobhan McDonagh to get an answer. Thanks for your attention to this matter

Thank you for reporting a problem with a street tree.
We aim to inspect street tree problems within 10 working days of being reported, or 2 hours if the tree is dangerous. We aim to carry out any necessary work within 30 working days.
Did you know…?
We care for more than 20,000 street trees in Merton, including pruning, pollarding, and planting hundreds each year to keep streets green, safe, and walkable.

Following our latest inspection, we have identified and specified the necessary tree works as part of routine maintenance. Please understand that we are unable to maintain all street trees simultaneously. Borough-wide tree maintenance is prioritised by risk to public safety, so lower-risk trees will be addressed as work progresses on higher-risk ones. We apologise for not being able to provide a specific date at this time, but we are managing the work as efficiently as possible within our resource limits.
