Notification of Tree Removal Works - Woorabinda Bushland Reserve, Stirling

Adelaide Hills Council will be undertaking the following tree management works below:

Works required: Removal of one failed Eucalyptus obliqua tree (Messmate Stringybark) and various planted trees adjacent to the Environment Centre.

Location of works: Northern and southern sides of Woorabinda Environment Centre, eastern building which is situated to the northern side of the lake.

Reason for works: One Eucalyptus obliqua tree (Messmate Stringybark) has failed and has impacted the roof of the building to the southern side (see photo below). Complete removal utilising a crane is required to avoid damage to the roof surface. To enable maintenance and repairs to be conducted to the building, various tree clearance works will also be undertaken directly adjacent to the buildings northern side (see photo below).

These works will be undertaken over two different dates:

Date of Works: Friday 17th November 2023 Time of Works: 7:30am – 1:00pm (Vegetation clearance along northern building line)

Date of Works: Monday 20th November 2023. Time of Works: between 11:00am – 3:00pm (Failed Stringybark tree removal)

Access constraints: To enable these works to be undertaken in a safe manner, the gravel car parking area to the north eastern side of the Environment Centre will be close during the works. A pedestrian exclusion zone will also be set up around the building. Access to the remaining portions of the park will remain unchanged.

We apologies for any inconvenience that these works may cause and thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

If you have any questions, please contact Council on 8408 0400.
