Case Study: Tree Reduction in Richmond for Bright Horizons Nursery
Project Overview
Bright Horizons Nursery in Richmond required urgent tree management to ensure the safety of children, staff, and the surrounding public walkways. Two mature London Plane trees had grown significantly over a footpath and the nursery's outdoor space, presenting both structural and safety risks.
