Project: Tree Planting

Status: Complete

Timing: Feb 2008 / Feb 2009

Location: Snowfields / Melior St / Magdalen St

In February 2008 our contractors planted 24 silver birch trees along these roads. Immediately these trees have started helping to create a greener, more pleasant streetscape for local businesses, workers, residents and visitors alike, and will continue to have an increased impact as they grow. Ten more trees were added in February 2009.

If you see one of our new trees, or indeed any other street side tree in the Team London Bridge area, that needs attention please let us know by emailing environment@teamlondonbridge.co.uk
