MOULTRIE, Ga. â The City of Moultrie has contracted with Wilson Tree Service to prune trees along local rights-of-way.
âMoultrie is fortunate to have an abundance of beautiful full trees. Along with having many full trees comes the responsibility of making sure the trees along our roadways are safe for trucks and larger vehicles to pass without any damage to the vehicles or trees,â said city spokeswoman Amy Johnson.
The tree canopy pruning project was set to begin Wednesday, Feb. 10, throughout the city, Johnson said.
âOnce the trees are pruned, they will meet the Department of Transportation s Regulatory Heights Standards,â she said. âTree canopies along roadways will be raised within the right of way to allow for safe travel, meet DOT standards and protect Moultrie s trees.â
