Details:
StreetScene cuts grass on all Borough owned land such as public open spaces, highway verges and recreation grounds during the Spring and Summer (from March to the end of October). Council owned grass is cut in the following frequencies depending on the weather:
 
  • Highway verges & public open spaces  - every 2-3 weeks
  • Recreation Grounds - every 2 weeks 
  • Semi Rural areas - 1 cut in Spring & 1 cut in Autumn
  • Leigh Road Recreation Ground - Once weekly
  • Sponsored Roundabout - Once weekly

 

The grass cutting regime is a cut and let fly operation with clippings left on the surface of the grassed areas. Our StreetScene operatives will blow the grass off pavements and paths back on to the grassed areas within 24 hours.

 

The grass is cut to ensure that people can use roads and pavements safely. Although the visual appearance and environmental issues are of great concern, grass cutting is actually carried out for highway safety reasons.
