If any of trees are found to have nesting birds the council will fence them off for safety reasons and put the works off until later in the year until after the bird nesting season ends.
This work is part of the regular park maintenance and is undertaken in batches because it is more cost effective than sending a team out to fell each tree individually.
Brockwell will be busy over the summer with more residents enjoying the better weather and the park also hosting the free Lambeth Country Show community festival, and other events. The council is acting now to reduce the risk of anyone being injured by a dead tree falling on them during this peak season.
This winter Lambeth Council has planted 90 new trees in Brockwell Park, which has almost 1,700 trees in total. A further 90 more trees at least will be planted in the park next winter.
