A Borough-Wide Risk Management Plan

The project involves delivering a comprehensive risk management plan for all trees across the borough. Using the TreePlotter system, our survey teams record detailed information about each tree digitally, ensuring:

  • Accurate mapping of all tree stock across highways and open spaces
  • Fast, reliable data capture and reporting
  • Seamless integration with the council’s management systems
  • Actionable insights for prioritising remedial works

This digital-first approach enables the council to plan effectively, reduce risk, and ensure public safety, while supporting the long-term health of the borough’s trees.

Impact on the Local Community

This project is not just about trees—it’s about people. By assessing and managing tree stock, we’re helping to create public spaces that are:

  • Safe – reducing risks from failing or defective trees
  • Welcoming – ensuring streets and parks remain attractive and accessible
  • Sustainable – supporting the future of the borough’s green canopy
  • Beneficial – providing shade, beauty, and places for relaxation and play

Looking Ahead

Through this ongoing partnership, Dryad is helping Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council create a lasting positive impact: safer streets, greener open spaces, and a community that can enjoy the natural beauty of its surroundings.

This project highlights how thoughtful, proactive tree management benefits both people and the environment—and how expertise, care, and collaboration can make a real difference to everyday life.
