"The branch had touched the electric cable and covered the traffic lights. Residents are also worried about falling or splintering. That's why we did the pruning," he expressed, Wednesday (4/17).

He stated the types of trees pruned were angsana (one tree) on Jalan Mangga Besar 76, Taman Sari Urban Village, Taman Sari Sub-district.

There were also angsana (four trees) in Tambora Sub-district, and angsana (three trees) in Kebon Jeruk Sub-district.
