Proposals to remove trees and vegetation as part of Corby Towns Fund project

Overview

Works are continuing to deliver the Corby Station link road project, which aims to improve the public realm and provide an attractive and safe pedestrian/cycle connection between the town centre and the train station.

The scheme has been designed to avoid the removal of mature trees along the route. However, some trees have been identified for potential removal and North Northamptonshire Council are currently consulting on the plans.

Following national guidance up to 20 trees have been identified for potential removal.

It is proposed that alongside removal works, a programme is put in place for planting 300 trees within the scheme but also for other spaces just outside the project area in Corby. You can view the proposed removal and planting plans.

Relevant legal notices have been placed on affected trees and on the Corby Towns Fund website where you can find a copy of the full notice and more information about the scheme for planting.
