Tree felling in the Grüna district

In the Schachtweg traffic green area along the railway line

Along the railway line in the Schachtweg area, urgent felling of 13 Canadian hybrid poplars is required and will be carried out this week and next week.

Without exception, the upcoming works are urgent measures that serve to maintain or establish road safety.

All maintenance measures in terms of the duty to maintain road safety are legally permissible and do not constitute an offence under Section 39 BNatSchG.

Before the measures are implemented, the relevant trees are checked for habitat structures for species relevant to nature conservation (especially birds and bats).
