OLYMPIA — Tree pruning will be done at various Capitol Campus locations on Tuesday, April 9, throughout the day.

The Washington State Department of Enterprise Services has contracted with Timm’s Tree Care for the pruning effort, which aims to improve tree health and ensure public safety. The work will include removing branches that were damaged during winter storms.

The tree work may impact auto and pedestrian traffic on campus, including along the South Diagonal and Deschutes Parkway. Six parking spaces on the South Diagonal will be cordoned off during the work as a safety precaution.

There will be noise from chainsaws and tree chippers during the work, which will begin at 7 a.m.
