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.

Thank you for your report. This dead tree has already been included on our work programme for removal. Please appreciate that we are unable to carry out maintenance on all street trees simultaneously across the borough. Tree works are prioritised based on assessed risk to public safety, meaning higher-risk issues must be addressed before lower-risk cases. We apologise that this work has not yet been completed, as urgent tree works elsewhere have required immediate attention. However, we have now instructed our contractor to elevate the priority of this tree, and we expect the removal work to be carried out in the near future.
