Tree Works Nottingham

Turnbull & Son Ltd carried out a large-scale highway pollarding programme across:

Burton Joyce, Calverton, Gedling, Carlton, Hucknall, Papplewick and Mapperley.

Over 200 mature lime trees were pollarded as part of a structured highway tree maintenance cycle. The works were required due to canopy growth affecting:

        •       Highway visibility
        •       Junction sight lines
        •       Overhead utility lines
        •       Street lighting clearance

Most of the trees were Tilia × europaea, a species that responds extremely well to routine pollarding. Lime trees produce vigorous regrowth, making a 5-year maintenance cycle standard practice in highway environments.

All works were delivered using MEWPs and compliant traffic management systems, ensuring minimal disruption and full safety compliance.

Result

        •       Improved highway visibility
        •       Clearance from overhead lines
        •       Reduced future risk
        •       Sustainable long-term tree management
