Cannock Chase Council will be removing some trees in the existing tree avenue at Hednesford Park, as part of essential works.
The trees, which have come to the end of their useful life, need felling to allow the remaining trees to develop.
As part of the works, there will also be some tree thinning along the Rugeley Road tree belt to allow the original avenue trees to gain room to establish and enable a clear view for park users.
Tom Walsh, Parks and Open Spaces Manager said “It was always the plan to remove some of the older avenue trees to join up the existing trees with the new avenue that we have created alongside Victoria Road. In effect we are completing the original master plan for the park from the 1930’s.”
Please note that during times of tree cutting, the tree avenue path will be closed for safety reasons. The Council apologise for any inconvenience caused.
