If you drive past Ben Davis, you may notice some of the large pine trees, planted sometime in the late 1960's, and other trees, planted in the early 2000's, along Girls School Road have been removed. For one, we're told that some of the large pine trees were rotting out. During a severe weather event, one of the pines fell over wiping out power and blocking Girls School back in April of 2025.
Some of the other trees were removed because that area will be where a new sidewalk will be installed as a part of the Girls School Road Project which is set to begin soon.
Just wanted to pass the information along if anyone was wondering.
Below is a link to an article by WRTV on the Girls School project.
Road construction season has arrived in Indianapolis, and one project on the city's west side is being welcomed with open arms.
