Bus diversions and Frenchay tree plan share a clearance theme
First Bus reported water-company works forcing diversions while South Gloucestershire planners listed a Frenchay tree-branch raising proposal; both point to the role clearance plays in keeping roads and routes open.
First Bus Bristol, Bath & West service updates said emergency Scottish Water works closed Trongate westbound, diverting services 18, 18A, 2, 21, 60, 60A, 61, 64, 240, 255, 263 and 267 while the work is completed [1]. The same source said unannounced Yorkshire Water works closed Whitehill Lane, sending service 207 via Whitehill Road and service 95 via Brinsworth Road [2].
South Gloucestershire Council’s planning weekly list includes a proposal to raise branches by 4m on multiple hazel trees in Frenchay Conservation Area to allow clearance [3].
Read together, the notices show two kinds of clearance activity: emergency water repairs requiring bus diversions, and a planned tree-branch raising in a conservation area.
