Hi,
What’s up with the new tree? We’ve been waiting for nearly (more than??) three years. Hoping you plant one this summer?

Issue 12380518 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue.

Public Works - AB (Forestry) assigned this issue to Public Works - AB (Forestry)

The sidewalk adjacent to the tree well does not currently meet ADA standards, this location needs to be repaired before we can plant a new tree. An internal request was submitted to have the tree well and sidewalk repaired by DPW. We expect funding this upcoming fiscal year for tree well repairs and this location is expected to be repaired this summer. Our tree planting seasons are spring and fall so this location, once repaired, will be included in the next planting season.

If you have a preference on the tree species to be planted you can select 2-3 options from our tree planting list: https://www.cambridgema.gov/Departments/publicworks/treeplantinglist
Please email your preferences to Abby Bentley at abentley@cambridgema.gov.

Thank you for reporting this issue to us. We are pleased to report back to you that this issue is now resolved.
