Already, we have read in this topic that many who visit the island "love that beautiful, tranquil tunnel of Albizia" but those of us who live here painfully try to stay at 35 MPH (the speed limit through the tunnel of death), hoping one of those tree-size limbs won't crack and fall on the roof of our cars!

At the time I suggested planting of native trees in the spaces in between the albizias, and phasing out the albizias, so that the canopy would gradually be replaced with other tree species. I thought that was a reasonable compromise, and still do. Obviously, I was alone and those overhanging branches have grown back.
Rene, that could be because this was a sensible idea? [}] I agree with you in that it keeps the tree tunnel yet will slowly replace with other species that wouldnt be so invasive.
