Trees will cause crash says city councillor

Cllr Gul Nawaz, member for Ravensthorpe, said: “Those trees are very, very dangerous on the corners. Some of them are higher than the houses. I’ve had a lot of complaints.

“This has been going on since I became a councillor in 2002.

“Accidents are going to happen. The trees need to be trimmed.”

Council officers were meeting with Cllr Nawaz yesterday, and a spokeswoman for the authority said: “We will look at his concerns and will work with him on any suitable resolutions, in line with council policy.”
