How's progress with the tree? SES are not looking as if they're going to be there any time soon. If you require me to scramble another brigade to assist, I can do that over.✓ checked
Norton Summit Ashton 34P
04:10:46 27.1s
Yeah, so we've started working on the lower branches and opened up one lane. However, the main, largest branch or main trunk is still hung up in the tree. So most likely do need some additional support, probably SES, given the nature of the tree. We're happy to wait at the quieter area, you know, keep traffic that way. But yeah, doing as much as we can at the moment, over.✓ checked

Norton Summit Ashton 34P
04:13:13 31.6s
Yeah, Marble Hill Control received, so yeah, we've removed all the lower limbs, we've cleared up one lane, however, the larger branch is still hung up in the tree, we've got the cones with both ends to stop traffic coming through, it is a large tree, still stuck up in there, and yeah, probably creating some hazards, so we'll more than likely stay on scene and wait for SES, I think that's probably the best way, and reopen one lane in the meantime.

Yeah, Mobile Hill Control receiving. Yeah, SES can still continue. We'll get working on the branches on the road. Again, yeah, had a big look around and no power lines involved.
