Increase the frequency of vegetation clearance cycles to ensure overgrowth and broken/fallen vegetation is cleared before storms.
Moderate – increased frequency requires more inspections and maintenance activities, leading to higher labor and equipment costs
Moderate/High – increased vegetation trimming frequency can prevent branches/trees from falling on roads, bridges, rail lines, signs, etc.
High – can be done in a phased approach as needed
Labor and equipment; community resistance
Ensure that clearance is prioritized based on greatest need and across a range of equity areas.
