Remove or shorten only branches that obstruct safe passage or visibility, in accordance with the Highways Act 1980, s 154. Pruning to follow BS 3998: 2010 ? prune to suitable secondary growth points, avoid excessive thinning, and retain group structure. The Beech group is producing low lateral growth that obstructs the public highway, affecting safe pedestrian and vehicle movement. The landowner is required to prevent vegetation from endangering or obstructing highway users. The proposed works restore statutory clearance and are reasonable, proportionate, and consistent with BS 3998 and NTSG principles.
