Dead tree on M55 embankment

Reported via mobile in the Fallen/ Dead Tree (NH) category anonymously at 09:34, Tuesday 8 July 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7825612.

There is a large dead tree leaning away from the motorway over a stock fence by our field. If it falls it will crush the fence and potentially enable sheep to escape onto the M55 (westbound carriageway approaching Tabley Lane Bridge) It is in an area where maintenance has fairly recently been carried out to remove a large number of trees.
