Construction Exclusion Zone

What is a Construction Exclusion Zone?

This involves us creating a plan of any and all trees both on and off the site that could be affected by the construction of the new project. This is different to a Tree protection plan which only identifies trees that can be impacted by the build itself. The Construction Exclusion Zone report and survey identifies trees that would be impacted, for example, at the entrance of the site or even along the roadway which may be 50m or more from the new build. 

The objective is to protect all the trees that may be potentially damaged or even have a small element of risk of being damaged during the construction phase. The risk may come from delivery lorries, parking of construction traffic, storage of materials within the root zone areas, chemical and diesel spills etc.  Planning officers sometimes request these documents as part of the Tree survey pack after the tree survey has been submitted. We find this is a significant factor in delaying planning and as such we would recommend supplying this report as a standard with the objective of ensuring the planning for your project is not delayed.
