By December 31 of 2018 the Municipality will be removing 6 trees in the downtown core, weather permitting. This includes 4 trees along Trowbridge Street between Sykes Street and Cook Street, and 2 trees along the west side of Sykes Street North (in front of Blossoms and Hear Well Be Well).

These trees are being removed as they are causing cracking and heaving of the sidewalk, creating a trip hazard, as well as damaging underground water infrastructure.

We will be reviewing replacement options in 2019 and will be looking for public feedback in the spring.
