Becoming Mature Takes Time, Patience, and Life Experiences
Next week, the Department of Development and Landscape Planning in Rhein-Kreis Neuss will saw ten trees along the L32 north of Schloss Dyck due to their insufficient stability and safety. The felling of nine red buckeyes and one red oak will commence on Thursday, February 27, with the road closure expected to last for three days. Detours will be indicated.
The regional office of Straßen.NRW-Regional, the responsible road maintenance authority, will carry out the procedure. The ailing trees have formed gaps in the alleyway over the years, which the nature monument protection department intends to address by replanting post-felling measures.
In recent years, replanting efforts have taken place on this stretch, but growing new trees to maturity is a lengthy process. Last winter, one of the red buckeyes, a nature monument, was uprooted, and another sick beech, no longer safe for traffic, was felled. As a result, a specialist report was commissioned for the 14 red buckeyes and one red oak in the alley. Ten of the 15 trees were found to pose an immediate traffic hazard and require immediate felling. The Rhein-Kreis Neuss has granted a felling permit due to the urgent traffic safety issue, and the trees will be cut down outside the breeding and nesting season.
Lack of water and nutrients are attributed to the poor health of these trees. The remaining five large red buckeyes show minimal damage signs so far, remaining largely healthy. They are expected to stand for many years, assuming no unforeseen events occur.

- The urgent need for traffic safety has led to the approval of a felling permit for ten trees in the environmental-science context, as they pose an immediate hazard due to their poor health in the L32 alleyway north of Schloss Dyck.
- The policy-and-legislation around this issue is crucial, as the felling of these climate-change impacting trees is happening outside the breeding and nesting season to minimize environmental disruption.
- Despite the felling, the importance of replanting is emphasized, as part of the general-news discussion on the future of the environmental-science in Rhein-Kreis Neuss, particularly in the Schloss Dyck area, where replanting efforts have been ongoing for several years.
