Appendix 3: Tree Protection Fencing Signage
Temporary ground protection
It is not anticipated however if access is required in order to install scaffolding to facilitate construction - Scaffold boards placed on top of 100mm of woodchip laid on to a geotextile membrane serve as appropriate ground protection measures.
No Fires to be lit within 30m of trees No Materials, fuel or chemicals to be stored, discharged or mixed within or where they are likely to flow towards the construction exclusion zone. No plant or machinery should be stored or operated within the construction exclusion zone. The protective fencing and ground protection should not be worked in or moved without acceptance of the planning/ tree officer or appointed Arboricultural supervisor until the construction is complete.
7.3.1 Final on-site measurements should be taken to ascertain the extent of any incursions into the RPAs of the retained trees and to provide guidance on the extent of the tree protection measures. 7.3.2 It is recommended that a Project Arboriculturalist is appointed prior to the commencement of any works and retained for the duration of the project. 7.3.3 The appointed person can assist in monitoring Arboricultural site activity using an auditable system. 7.3.4 The appointed person should be consulted in the event that additional ground protection measures are considered necessary, root pruning is required or incursions into the RPAs are considered necessary.
7.4 Ground Works & Demolition
7.4.1 The erection of protective fencing and use of ground protection measures as per the TPP, combined with the retention of existing hard surfacing within the RPAs of retained trees, prior to the commencement of any works on site will allow the ground works to take place whilst minimising any adverse effect and/or impact on the retained trees. 7.4.2 All plant and vehicles engaged in ground works should either operate outside the RPA, or run on ground protection (see 6.5.6).
7.5 Soil Compaction and Remediation Measures
7.5.1 Soil that has been compacted will not provide suitable conditions for the survival and growth of vegetation, whether existing or new, and is a common cause of post-construction tree loss on development sites. 7.5.2 Compacted soil will adversely affect drainage, gas exchange, nutrient uptake and organic content, and will seriously impede or restrict root growth. 7.5.3 Soil compaction should be avoided around existing vegetation, including trees, and in areas where new planting or seeding is proposed.
