Burley Road car park closure on 13th September 2022
Burley Road car park near Oakham Castle will be closed for most of the day on Tuesday the 13th of September 2022 to allow Rutland County Council to remove a tree due to its poor condition.
Following an extensive report, the tree, which is a Wellingtonia (Sequoiadendron giganteum), and is the tallest tree located next to the castle wall, has been identified as dangerous due to a significant stem wound and root rot which poses as a high risk.
To lessen the impact on car park users in the future, other works will also happen on this day.
Deputy Leader and Portfolio Holder for Planning, Highways and Transport, Cllr Rosemary Powell, said: "Due to this work taking place, it is necessary for the safety of workers and drivers to close the car park, but we hope to have it open as usual before the end of the day. We apologise of any inconvenience this causes and thank residents for their patience."
Users can find details of alternative parking by visiting Rutland County Council's website.
