Routine Tree Maintenance (Stockport Central and Bramhall & Cheadle Hulme areas)

This is intended to start in the Bramhall & Cheadle Hulme and Stockport Central areas at the beginning of May 2010. Every Park and Open space within the ownership of the Council's Parks and Recreation service will be having a full tree inspection. Any maintenance required will then be carried out by the Council. Following this inspection and completion of work, we do not intend to return to these sites for another three years as part of our rolling routine maintenance program, except in the case of emergency works. If you have any concerns or questions over this routine work or have a specific problem with a tree on the Council's Parks and Recreation land please do not hesitate to contact us.

Beware of Hairy Invaders
