The County of San Luis Obispo Department of Public Works has begun routine tree trimming and vegetation removal alongside County-maintained roads in Cambria.


Work, to be done by County road crews, is expected to continue throughout the summer.  No road closures are anticipated.

This routine trimming work is being done, in part, to support the County’s scheduled surface treatment project for Cambria in 2019; in addition to providing clearance for over-size vehicles such as delivery trucks, school busses, fire and, emergency vehicles.

All trees and vegetation on County-maintained roads are being inspected for maintenance, in compliance with County Public Improvement Standards. Trimming and removals are made on a case-by-case basis.  All work will be done under the direction of an International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Certified Master Arborist. County Best Management Practices (BMP’s) will be followed, including measures to restrict the spread of pathogens.
