Cllr David A Bithell, Lead Member for the Environment and Transport, said, “During the summer we come under huge pressure to keep the verges and roundabouts clear but we have to be mindful of the ecological value of each verge and roundabout.

“This is why we only cut them when we are certain the wildlife has had the full benefit from the seasonal growth.

“The works will cause some disruption to motorists and we ask drivers to plan more time into their journey to allow for this.”
