A SURVEY of the trees in Ludlow will be undertaken to find what condition they are in.

This will then result in maintenance and local businesses are being invite to tender for the work.

Ludlow Town Council is inviting tenders to develop a tree maintenance inspection and works schedule for all of its sites throughout the town.

The work will be undertaken in three phases: mapping all of the Town Council trees, conducting a tree audit and an inspection of each tree.

This will allow a prioritised schedule of works to be created for all Town Council owned sites.

“I encourage all companies with this expertise to tender for this work,” said Tim Gill, Mayor of Ludlow.

“It is an exciting project to prioritise the maintenance of trees on the town’s amenity areas that Ludlow Town Council are responsible for.”

Anyone wishing to apply must complete a quotation on the specified form and it must have been received at the Guildhall, Mill Street, by 4.30pm on February 26.
