FALLEN TREES AND ROAD IMPACTS

Hinchinbrook Shire Council advises residents to report any fallen trees, road damage, or other hazards affecting public areas as soon as possible.

Council was made aware of the fallen tree at the Cenotaph in the Ingham Memorial Gardens, and it was actioned for removal on the 13th of January.

The tree has not caused any damage to surrounding infrastructure. Crews are prioritising tasks that affect public safety, so they may not be able to remove the fallen tree until Monday.

One way to help is to report issues directly to Council by calling (07) 4776 4600.
