From chair at soscambridge.org.uk Fri Jul 16 12:58:43 2010 From: chair at soscambridge.org.uk (John Lawton) Date: Fri, 16 Jul 2010 12:58:43 +0100 Subject: [Announce] Chestnut tree branch lopping in Victoria Avenue Message-ID: <20100716115844.LJFQ1586.aamtaout02-winn.ispmail.ntl.com@asus.soscambridge.org.uk> Dear SOS email subscriber, I recently witnessed a Victoria Avenue chestnut tree being heavily pruned apparently because of bus company complaints, i.e that the trees were damaging their double-decker buses. We have published a short article on our website with a short video. http://www.soscambridge.org.uk Needless to say we find this event very unsatisfactory, especially as it has happened just after the Tree Seminar, also mentioned on the website. I am informed that the tree protocol did not apply to these works. You might like to lobby the councillors mentioned, to try to prevent a reoccurance.
