We have been in contact with the officer in charge of planting trees within the City, as a diseased tree was taken down in Latimer Road, and residents have asked if a new one could take its place.
We have had a promising response which I post below – maybe there are other locations in Headington suitable for tree planting requests? Please hit the comment button or use the Contact us button on the left hand tool bar if you have any ideas.
I have a number of trees available for planting this winter. I will
ensure an appropriate replacement is reserved for this location.
Gathorne Road is short of trees as there are a number of spaces where the trees have been removed for one reason or another. However, it could be a problem replacing them because of the marked out parking areas – we have “pavement parking”.
