Clarington council has announced that work will begin as soon as possible to preserve a red oak tree on Beech Avenue believed to be between 150 and 200 years old.
The tree needs some maintenance and ongoing work to improve safety from the heavy limbs, said a council statement.
The work will involve pruning to reduce the size of the crown on the tree. A system of cables will also be installed to support the heavy tree limbs. The tree will also undergo deep root fertilization to ensure that the roots get the proper amount of nutrients needed to maintain the health of the oak tree.
Staff will continue to inspect and maintain the tree annually, said the statement.
