> Hi Team. The tree outside my house is has become too low over the footpath, and some members of the public have hurt themselves by hitting their heads on the lower branches. Unfortunately the branches in question can’t be cut off or trimmed without destroying the tree. They are large and heavy branches. The person in the photo is 6 foot tall, so you can see how it is easy for people walking past to hit the overhanging branches. The tree has also caused minor damage to SUV sized vehicles due to it’s abnormal growth on the road side. Could someone please come and have a look at the tree? Thanks in advance.
