Hide AdResident Mick Graham said he first called for action two years ago, and since then there has been a survey of residents views on the issue, and a letter informing them of the residents.
He understands the plan to to take them down and replace them with fewer, newly planted, trees.
He said: "We're still waiting to know when they're coming out," he said. "It is getting on for two years since I first started complaining about it, and it is the fourth that has fallen down since then.
"I think they should be removed before the onset of winter. We shouldn't have to suffer another winter in fear of trees falling on someone or something."
