Highway Green Spaces Life Cycle Plan16.6.2 Renewal/ReplacementRenewal/replacement work is major planned (programmed) work that does notincrease the asset’s designed capacity, but restores, rehabilitates, replaces orrenews an existing asset to its original capacity. (Maintaining a ‘Steady State’)Table 16.6.2 details a number of ‘Steady State’ activities their relative merits andtheir expected programme intervals.Table 16.6.2 Planned Maintenance ActivitiesTreatment type Comments AnticipatedfrequencyTree replacementVerge reinstatementPlanting trees to replace dead trees orthose that have been removed foranother reason, such as developmentworks.Planned reinstatement of a number ofdamaged verges within one worksprogramme.Programmes fortree replacementare instigated asand when required.Programmed whensufficient workshave beenidentifiedPlanned maintenance is generally carried out following routine inspections, orreceipt of reports from Envirocall, Ward Stewards etc, followed by a moredetailed inspection process and an assessment of the nature of the work to beundertaken and how it can best be programmed.16.6.3 Creation/Acquisition/UpgradingCreation/Acquisition/Upgrading is major work that creates a new asset that didnot previously exist, or works that upgrade or improve an asset beyond itsexisting design capacity. Examples of Creation, Acquisition & Upgradingactivities are detailed in table 16.6.3.Table 16.6.3 Creation, Acquisition & UpgradingActivityCreationAcquisitionUpgradingExplanationIntroduction of grass verges to replace hard surfacing, plantingof new trees and hedges, installation of new flower & shrubbeds or planting areas.Adoption of new developments that may contain grass verges,trees, hedges or flower & shrub beds.Increasing the size of a verge area or the introduction of grassgrid in verges. Replacement of fences with hedges, andreplacement of hard areas with flower & shrub beds.At this time there are no known or programmed works for creation, acquisition orupgrading.16.6.4 Disposal144
Highway Green Spaces Life Cycle PlanDisposal is any activity that removes a decommissioned asset, including sale,demolition or relocation. Although disposal of green space assets are unusualthere have been a number of instances in recent years and table 16.6.4 detailsthe disposal activities and the drivers behind their use.Table 16.6.4 Highway Green Spaces Disposal ActivitiesDisposal ActivityCutting Down of TreesRemoval of flower & shrub bedsRemoval of plantersReason for DisposalDead, dying or potentially hazardoustrees, or new development work.Repeatedly damaged or vandalised,prone to flooding or where budgets areinsufficient for adequate maintenance.Repeatedly damaged or vandalised,changes to highway infrastructure, whereplanters prevent access or wherebudgets are insufficient for adequatemaintenance.16.7 OptimisationThe Environmental Services budget for maintenance of highway green spaces iscontained within the overall budget and is not analysed for works within thehighway.Additional money is available from a number of differing sources, including theEuropean regional development fund for landscape improvements, the housingmarket renewal budget, the neighbourhood renewal fund, and throughsponsorship from local businesses for the maintenance of particular featuressuch as roundabouts and planters.Verges, flower & shrub beds and planters can also be subject to the ‘adopt-aplot’scheme where they are maintained on the council’s behalf by localresidents.16.7.1 BacklogAt present it is impossible to calculate a backlog figure due to the lack of financialinformation relating to the highway assets.However it is estimated that approximately 600 street trees have been removedwithin the last five years without any replacement having been carried out, it isfurther estimated that in order to rectify this deficiency as per the councilguidelines would require a budget of approximately £ 1.0M. This figure beingbased on the cost of replacing a tree within a hard area being approximately£3,000 and the cost of replacing a tree within a verge area being between £300& £1,500.16.7.2 Service Options145
