Traffic Management and Control Ltd traffic manager Scott Graham (left) watches as Simon Greenall, of Foote Haulage, and Asplundh team leader Cory Walters remove a plane tree stump from the Octagon in Dunedin yesterday.
Mr Walters said the tree was cut down about two years ago, but it was difficult to find another suitable specimen.
A 4m-high London plane tree would be removed from a reserve in South Dunedin today and planted at the site tomorrow.
