Bergisch Gladbach to Fell Unstable Black Locust Tree on Oct 7
Bergisch Gladbach is set to remove a black locust tree on October 7, 2025, due to safety concerns. The tree, located at the corner of Dellbrücker and Eschenbroich streets, has been deemed unstable due to a fungal infestation.
The city has decided to fell the black tree to ensure public safety. The black locust, a popular ornamental tree, has been affected by a fungal infection that has weakened its structure. Despite its aesthetic appeal, the tree's instability poses a risk to passersby. The felling process is expected to take place on a weekday, with no specific details on who will be involved in the operation.
The removal of the black locust tree is a necessary measure to maintain safety in the area. The city of Bergisch Gladbach has not specified any plans for the site after the tree's removal.
