Tree Condition Survey for Media City UK in Salford

Client: Media City UK

Project Type: Large-scale tree condition survey

Services: Visual Tree Assessment (VTA), Tree Risk Management Report & Plan

Summary:

The client not only wanted to fulfill their obligations to uphold their ‘duty of care’ to members of the public, but also in producing a detailed tree management plan for the 200-acre mixed-use property development on the banks of the Manchester Ship Canal in Salford.

We carried out the surveys using pear technology  tree management software and GPS Trimble hardware, collecting tree data.  All individual trees were visually assessed, groups of trees &/or woodlands were walked and mapped to give a fully comprehensive inventory of the tree population within the park. A detailed Health & Safety report and plans were also prepared which included an extensive tree schedule that outlined the recommended tree works and future re-inspection frequency. 

The client was happy with the detailed survey and report. We now undertake this tree condition survey annually to help meet the duty of care to make sure all the trees on and within the site are safe.
