# Trees - General, 6 Bishopsworth Street, Hillsborough, Christchurch 8022, New Zealand

Hillsborough, Christchurch · filed 6 January 2026 · report 7495687
https://www.chch.live/report/7495687

> Very large tree branching out over half of the road. Needs branches removed over the road. Branches are touching power line wires currently across the road and to my house at 4 Bishopsworth Street. Huge amount of leaves block the gutters every autumn which the owner of 6 Bishopsworth Street never removes from his berm. Can we please request an arborist to look at the age and stability of the tree with a view to reducing its size and urgently remove the branches touching the wires. Thank you.
