Tree Protection Fencing
East Sussex Residential Development
30th April 2021 - Posted in: Arboricultural, General
The protection of retained trees throughout the construction phases of development is of paramount importance. However, the symbiotic integration of trees and development is not always simple to address. It is common for trees to be a late consideration for developers with protection measures worked around the development, rather than the development working around the trees.
Early engagement and continuous consultation with an arboricultural consultant is key to ensure trees are feasible to retain, whilst providing adequate and pragmatic tree protection methodologies that can be retained throughout the duration of development.
Due to the importance of retained trees at this residential development in East Sussex, long-term and robust tree protection measures have been installed to provide secure construction exclusion zones. The fencing will be retained throughout development to provide a physical barrier between construction activities and the rooting areas of trees, maximising retention and safeguarding their future post development completion.
