Eastbourne Borough Council is greening the environment by creating a boulevard in part of Lottbridge Drove. The Council has completed the planting of 50 Holm Oaks on the boundary with five acre field, paid for by the developers of the Wartling Road housing development. The planting is phase one of a two phase project to improve the visual amenity of the area around the development with the further tree planting undertaken once the development is completed.
An Eastbourne Borough Council Spokesperson said, “This is an important entrance to the town and the new planting not only helps to reduce the carbon in the town, but will also provide an attractive gateway to the seafront.”
The new avenue of trees will provide valuable shade to the footpath and the national cycle route that runs along Lottbridge Drove.
