Hazardous tree needs immediate removal
A very large pine tree needs to be removed urgently from Brickwharf Rd, Woy Woy.
Central Coast Council will not and cannot advise residents as to when works will be carried out.
The tree is dead and stands more than 20 metres high with hefty branches arching across the road.
Directly underneath some of these enormous dead branches is a bus stop where unsuspecting visitors and residents alight to enjoy the picturesque water reserve across the road.
In February, Gosford Council advised residents that removal and stump grinding had been approved.
Again in May, we were advised the same thing, yet this giant dead tree still looms perilously across the road.
Why hasn't it been removed?
Council says the work will be undertaken subject to the availability of funding.
Surely lives on the Peninsula are worth saving?
Council says they need extra resources to service the Gosford LGA with some jobs for tree removal dating back to 2014.
Please provide these resources to get these lifesaving jobs done.
This hazardous tree needs to be removed immediately.
