ROBBINSVILLE: ‘X’ marks the spot for doomed street trees

Street trees such as this one on Spencer Way, which has created a sidewalk tripping hazard, will be cut down and replaced with a smaller caliper tree more suitable for the narrow right-of-way between the street and the sidewalk. After the township’s contractor replaces the sidewalks and plants new trees, future sidewalk maintenance will become homeowners’ responsibility.
