Our annual tree pruning programme is underway, with more than 1,000 trees being pruned through to spring to help manage the risk of subsidence damage to nearby properties. Short-term parking suspensions may be needed while work takes place and will be removed once works are complete.

A Westminster street lined with parked cars and autumn trees, their leaves turning shades of orange and yellow. Buildings rise on either side, with one van prominently parked on the right side of the street.

A scenic view of Vincent Square in London, featuring a path lined with benches and large trees shedding autumn leaves. The area is surrounded by red-brick buildings, some with balconies. The sky is clear, creating a peaceful and inviting atmosphere.
