The crane in action; the first tree down.After a delay of a couple of hours while a missing piece of equipment was found the crane started work lifting trees down from the top of the cliff at the Pavilion end of Rock Walk. Only 5 more weeks to go.
The traffic round town was much lighter today, car drivers stayed out of Union Street and Abbey Road so we were able to get round faster. But, several cars were seen driving in Fleet Street and the posts by the bus stop going down and the bench by the bus stop going up are still there. The 2nd and 3rd lane at Belgrave Road are still not coned off and there is some confusion amongst bus drivers about which bus stops they should stop at to pick up and drop off passengers in Union Street, Fleet Street and Abbey Road. It will all come out in the wash, or maybe it wont.
Not a job I would fancy, fixing the chain to a tree at the top of a 150 foot high cliff.

The queues in Abbey Road seem less bad today. Rat runs found, no doubt.
Hi Dave, we must both have been there about the same time- I've got very similar photos to you. You won't catch me up a tree like that:-))
