Work is continuing on a detailed assessment of over 20 Lombardy poplar trees in St Omer Park, Queenstown.

An arborist is using specialised equipment to determine the internal condition of each tree. His findings will be included in a risk assessment of all of the poplars bordering Lake Esplanade.

QLDC Parks Manager Mike Weaver said while the report had provisionally been expected by the end of this week, the painstaking nature of the work meant that it would more probably be next week before he received the report.
