Uxbridge Rd Tree Planted - and Promptly Vandalised

Local residents' campaign to Fix The Uxbridge Road has had something of a setback as one of the new trees on the Uxbridge Rd has been vandalised.

The campaign to Fix The Uxbridge Road has been working with our local council the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham to take action to improve our local street scene.  One of the few tangible results of that campaign has been the planting of new trees. 

Unfortunately (and not for the first time) one of the newly planted trees has been destroyed.  

Our council will no doubt be back, most likely in the next tree planting season, to replace it. But this summer a broken tree on the Uxbridge will be a melancholy reminder that the campaign to Fix The Uxbridge Road will be a long one, likely with many setbacks.
