DURING the consultation into the proposed enlarged roundabout at the A19 at Rawcliffe, I asked if the proposed road-works would result in the uprooting of the newly-planted trees on the south west corner of the junction of the A1237 and the A19. I did not receive a reply from the city council.

It seemed on the plans that the roundabout is to be offset and includes the land on which these trees are planted.

As these trees are now becoming nicely established, again I ask if they are to be uprooted to enable this enlargement to take place?
