Weeds on the public highway

Summary of Service

Unless required by legislation the County Council has a policy of weed control, not eradication.

Details of Service

Suitable methods of weed control are determined taking into account safety, size of infestation, effectiveness, and the effect on the environment.

The problems caused by Common Ragwort are appreciated, and it is important that treatment is prioritised according to severity of infestation and proximity to livestock or land used for livestock feed.

In built up areas we arrange for treatment of weeds at least once a year.
