In particular, the system is based on the elimination by traction of the stump and old roots while improving the soil to house the new specimen

"In this way, we take advantage of the tree nurseries and plant new specimens, very necessary in the parks and gardens to provide shade and that all the neighbors can enjoy them throughout the year." These spaces become meeting areas for families, friends and neighbors, so they have to be in perfect condition and offer spaces where they can develop social and physical skills "José Guillén has highlighted

The City of Murcia, through the Department of Modernization of Urban Management and Development directed by José Guillén, is carrying out work to eliminate the stumps that have been located in some of the town's tree-groves to recover the arboreal space.

The dismantling of old trunks is done with a giant drill or a powerful corkscrew.

This technique has already eliminated almost 2,500 stumps and seeks to recover the trees of the city that forms the sidewalks and gardens.

"In this way, we take advantage of the tree nurseries and plant new specimens, very necessary in the parks and gardens to provide shade and that all the neighbors can enjoy them throughout the year." These spaces become meeting areas for families, friends and neighbors, so they have to be in perfect condition and offer spaces where they can develop social and physical skills "highlighted José Guillén.

In particular, the system is based on the removal by traction of the stump and old roots while improving the soil to house the new specimen.

What is done is to replant a new specimen in that hole or give more space to the sidewalk where it was, eliminating old radicular systems that would prevent the development of the new roots.

These works are carried out especially at the end of winter, so that in these months the new specimens can be planted not only in Murcia capital but also in the districts of the municipality.

For this, a team of a dozen people will carry out some jobs that will last in time until next March.

In this way, all trees and specimens that due to illness or different circumstances have been damaged or eliminated are recovered.

The consistory continues with its policy of continuing to promote green spaces and the use of these by all Murcia.
