Once Upon a Time there was a Street Full of Tree's, then Amey Came! This is a story of what happened to 1 street that was purged by the Labour Sheffield City Council's PFI contractor Amey of all of its trees. That illustrates what is happening across the city to hundreds of Sheffield's biggest trees that soak up vehicle pollution and releasing oxygen into the streets, which is why they were planted in the first place typically over a 100 years ago to help clean up Sheffield's toxic air environment of that time which given the volume of traffic remains just as toxic now as it was then.
