Sasolburg notes on tree care & clean-up
Crown reduction and thinning of planes and pines in Vaalpark and older Sasolburg streets keeps them off roofs and lines. Willows and poplars along the Vaal River near Deneysville and the Vaal Dam need regular cutting back, and invaders on the banks need follow-up. An arborist can check old trees near the green belt for rot.
Trees in Sasolburg
Sasolburg was laid out as a green industrial town, with tree-lined streets and wide green belts planted between homes and the chemical plants. Many of those trees, including planes, pines, cypresses, willows and gums, are now mature, tall and close to houses, roads and power lines. The Vaal River and Vaal Dam are close, so willows and poplars are common near water. Summer brings thunderstorms with hail and lightning, and winters are cold with frost. Plant contractors ask for line clearing and safety felling, residents for crown reduction and removal, and riverside owners near Deneysville for willows and invaders. Ask the municipality before cutting street or green belt trees.
