Braintree District Council, GB allows rural roadsides to grow wild during pilot with Essex County

Braintree District Council, GB Rural Roadside Wild Pilot

En cours

The one-year pilot scheduled one lawn cutting per year for targeted roadsides rather than the traditional two cuttings. Wild roadsides protect the animal, insect, and flower habitats endangered by frequent maintenance. Parish and town councils throughout Braintree were surveyed about their views on wild verges at the end of the year. This pilot followed a 2019 roadside wildflower planting program by the county and Keep Britain Tidy.

Projet réussi

Braintree and Essex County extended the pilot for a second year after local surveys revealed largely positive responses.
