Tree removal near the John Abbott College Memorial Field
Published: 17 August 2017
Some of you may have noticed trees being felled near the John Abbott College Memorial Field. 聽While we never want to cut trees down, nature sometimes leaves us no choice. 聽Four of the trees being taken down this week are rotten oak trees, which pose a safety hazard, and another four are ash trees infected with the emerald ash borer that has been wreaking havoc on Montreal Island in recent years. 聽All the trees being removed are being replaced. 聽Other trees will get a significant pruning. 聽It is likely that more oak trees will need to be felled in future years for the same reasons. 聽Thank you for your understanding.
