I previously reported this tree as it's hiding a lamppost and light, was told in a garden so can only ask owner to trim it. He has never touched it and now is is splitting. Just seen owner of tree and owner of car discussing it but I still think the owner of tree needs to be warned as more branches will split and it is close to our narrow street with no footpaths. People and vehicles could be struck by branches when high winds are prevailing.
