Ask RiotACT: TREES marked for removal around Canberra… where are they?

bywongqueen 24 August 2017 23 August 2017 3

Hi folks.

I photograph trees and I would appreciate it if Canberrans could give me a heads-up about any tree locations marked for removal, please.

I have seen one in Weston Creek and know of others in north Watson.

Street names, nearby house numbers or approximate & suburbs would be most appreciated.

Many thanks.

You’re probably too late to photograph it now but there were a few eucalyptus trees marked for removal in Northbourne Avenue somewhere between the City and Dickson on the median strip I think.

Can anyone help, please? I have put in two calls to Urban Trees but they have not responded.
I would like to photograph as many of these as possible before they are taken down. Please post here or contact via my website http://www.NaturesArtist.com.au Thanks, Nora
