Proposal

Excavation works within Root Protection Areas of trees, Glamorgan Building, Cardiff University. The scheme is to provide 10 EV charging spaces served by 5 twin 22kW electric vehicle charger pillars in the parking area to the rear/side of the Glamorgan Building. The trees affected are located within the landscaped verge/tree belt beside the external roadway and parking area at the Glamorgan Building, immediately adjacent to the proposed EV charger pillars, cable trench route, and protective barrier works. The arboricultural drawings show that parts of the proposed trenching and foundation works encroach into the root protection areas of these trees
