The Porto City Council decided to order the urgent felling of 19 trees on Avenida dos Aliados, one of the main arteries of the city. The decision was made this week and the cutting work is taking place during this period.
The Porto municipality justified the measure with the need to renew the existing trees on this emblematic street. According to the council, a "progressive renewal of the remaining trees" is planned for Avenida dos Aliados.
The decision comes in a context of concern about the state of conservation of the trees on the avenue. The council did not specify the reasons for the urgent felling of these 19 trees specifically, nor did it present a detailed schedule for their replacement.
