    Spring cleaning and greening Woodstock The Woodst Spring cleaning and greening Woodstock

The Woodstock ID embarked on small urban beautification projects this year, which we hope to continue into the next year. The project initially started with the revamping of some of the old public benches in Victoria Road with the help of local businesses. As part of the ongoing project, the WID augmented these seating areas with large planter pots to bring some greenery to the area and will also add public cigarette bins in their vicinity to keep the area clean.

More potted plants were also placed along Victoria Road near the intersection of Mountain Road to create a barrier between pedestrians and vehicle traffic in the adjacent parking area.

    Don’t allow tree emergencies to take root this w Don’t allow tree emergencies to take root this winter 🌳 

City of Cape Town's specialised teams are on standby to respond to tree-related emergencies caused or aggravated by adverse weather conditions as part of our efforts to reduce the risks associated with the colder months.

Fallen trees or branches pose a serious risk to our safety and properties, and can also knock out power lines and other infrastructure. The emergency tree teams have the tools and experience to ensure the safety of people and public property. They focus on trees that have fallen or caused damage or obstruction to public buildings or property.

Avoid tree emergencies on your property

Winter is the ideal time to inspect deciduous trees when there are no dense leafy crowns, which makes it easier to inspect branches.

It’s also a good time to prune your trees.

Be vigilant for the Polyphagous Shot Hole Borer, a major threat to many of our tree species.

Report any tree emergencies to our Public Emergency Communication Centre by dialling 021 480 7700 from a cell phone or 107 from a landline. Please note that this line is only for emergencies and should not be used for routine maintenance issues.
