Bergisch Gladbach to Fell Unstable Robinia Tree on October 7

Bergisch Gladbach is set to fell a Robinia tree at the intersection of Dellbrücker Street and Eschenbroich Street on October 7, 2025. The decision comes after repeated maintenance efforts failed to ensure the tree's stability. The tree, despite receiving regular care, has suffered extensive damage. Large areas of its bark have died and peeled off, making it unsafe. Fungal infestation has taken a toll, with various species causing significant damage and increasing deadwood over the years. Experts have deemed the tree's stability unguaranteed, making its felling unavoidable. The felling of the Robinia tree in Bergisch Gladbach is scheduled for October 7, 2025. The city has taken this decision to ensure public safety, as the tree's stability can no longer be ensured. The name of the tree care specialist responsible for the felling is not publicly available.
