Tree pruners aren't much bigger than a broom, so there wouldn't be a reason you couldn't carry one on public transportation if you could find one locally.
My dad has the Fiskars, it's pretty neat. I bought a cheap one from Harbor Freight which satisfies my needs just fine. I think it cost somewhere between $9.99 and $15.99.
Also, if your worry is that your tree has grown into utility wires, most of the utilities (at least in the 3 states I've lived in) come and trim around their wires on a scheduled basis.
