Unstable tree

Reported via mobile in the Overgrown or obscuring view (NH) category anonymously at 07:29, Tuesday 12 May 2026

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9437823.

There is a corridor of land between the back fences on my road and the M1 motorway fence that is currently very overgrown. One tree in particular has grown very tall and is pressing against the back fence of No24 Grampian way. It has quite a small diameter trunk but a very large canopy. When there is high winds the tree is threatening to break. I’m concerned it is a safety issue if it does fall and the damage it would cause to our properties. It needs either felling or cutting right back to reduce the risk to our properties and the adjacent motorway
