Roadside trees situated to the east and west of the property and trees opposite the property should
be protected by temporary fencing. The fencing is to be installed to the edge of existing
tarmac/concrete to mitigate accidental vehicle encroachment and storage of materials.

3.3.1 General Tree Protection Measures
The following protection measures and low impact methodologies have been provided to ensure the
subject tree is not impacted during excavations.

Appoint a Project Arborist (PA)
The PA should hold an AQF5 in Arboriculture and have at least 5 years’ consultancy experience.
The role of the PA is to provide guidance and clarification on the tree protection methods outlined
in this report. Additionally, the PA is to be available to provide feedback and ongoing assessments
of the tree and its protection measures throughout and following the development of the site, when
necessary.

Tree Protection Zone (TPZ/NRZ) fencing
A temporary TPZ fence is to be installed to protect as much of the calculated TPZ as practical. The
TPZ fence should meet the following criteria:
- The fence should be installed as soon as practical.
- The fence can be comprised of safety mesh or similar.
- No materials should be stored within the fenced off area.
- The fence should not be removed until the development has concluded.
