'We have engaged with the local authority and police during this process'
Developers have defended their controversial removal of trees along a "nationally significant" walkway in Wellingborough following protests and legal questions from residents and groups against the felling. They argue the removal of around 40 lime trees from The Walks is "essential infrastructure" and that ecological surveys means the work will have minimal impact.
The Stanton Cross development to the east of Wellingborough includes 3,650 new homes, alongside industrial and retail space worth £1.5m. It is overseen by a consortium of developers including Vistry and Bovis Homes. “Trees often have to be removed for key infrastructure projects such as this, but we understand the level of local concern, and have continued to liaise closely with engineers and the ecology team to work through the plans and minimise the impacts of the work taking place. We have already reduced the number of trees that have to be removed in this instance to fewer than 40."
“In the wider context, the development will see hundreds of new trees planted, the creation of parks and green spaces, as well as the provision of thousands of new homes, many designated as affordable housing, to local people, with homebuilders contributing more than £200 million to infrastructure improvements over the course of the project.
