Start pruning work

Starting March 16, 2026, we will begin maintenance on municipal trees in the neighborhoods of De Vloed, Centrum, 't Harde Ven, Breeakker, Buitengebied Breeakker, 't Eigen, Breugel, and Hoogstraat. 

The work will take approximately until the end of May, depending on weather conditions. We will work outside of rush hour. We plan to prune the trees on Gentiaanlaan during the May holiday, when the school that the diversion route passes by will be closed, so there will be no disruption for the students. 

We only prune trees when it is really necessary. This may be to maintain sufficient space for traffic or street lighting, or to ensure the long-term health of the tree. By pruning in a targeted manner, we ensure that the tree population remains balanced and the green appearance of the neighborhoods is preserved.
