The City of Greater Geraldton wishes to advise it will be removing two dead Norfolk pine trees located in the locality of Geraldton.

The tree located at 172 Durlacher Street will be removed on Tuesday 3 January 2017 and the tree located at 112 Fitzgerald Street will be removed on Wednesday 4 January 2017.

Although the City is always reluctant to remove trees as they add to the liveability of the urban space, in this case the trees are located in close proximity to the street and houses and present a serious risk to pedestrians, motorists and homes.

During the removal of the trees the road will be open for residents living in the affected area only. Traffic management will be in place including a total road closure. Motorists and pedestrians are requested to exercise caution and obey all warning signs and directions from authorised City personnel and contractors.

The City apologises for any inconvenience these works may cause.

If you have any queries regarding the renewal works please contact the City on 08 9956 6600 or email council@cgg.wa.gov.au.
