Council's Parks crews will commence landscaping improvements on Hunter Street, West Rockhampton, this week with the removal of ageing palm trees, making way for a more revitalised garden.
The palm trees have experienced a significant decline in health over recent years and while efforts have been made to improve their condition and prolong their lifespan, the trees are no longer suitable for retention and now pose a safety risk to motorists.
As a main thoroughfare to and from Rockhampton's airport, Council's Parks crews will take this opportunity to rejuvenate the garden beds with bougainvillea in coming week, bringing new colour and life to the area.
Motorists are asked to drive with caution while crews undertake these works on Wednesday 11 and Thursday 12 November.
