Diseased and dead trees along the A41 at The Rock, Tettenhall, will be removed when contractors carry out work on November 18. It will mean the day-long closure of the route between Stockwell Road and Old Hill, with motorists facing delays because of lengthy diversions.
The work comes after a large poplar tree plunged more than 20ft down the bank and over a wall, blocking the road, in July.
Tettenhall Regis Councillor Jonathan Yardley said: "The trees are a part of what makes Tettenhall beautiful and they mark a gateway into the village, but it is unfortunate that it is unsafe."
