Update – I Wish – The Weed Sprayer Could Aim His Nozzle….

Caught in action this morning along Ashline Grove/Briggate Crescent area.

The Weedkiller with his ‘Nozzle’

The county’s chemical weed treatment programme is in full swing as more than 440km of kerbside weeds have been treated already in just a few weeks – the equivalent distance of just under 5,000 football pitches – and will cover 243 parish areas in total.

The programme began in June and is expected to finish in August. A second treatment will take place in October.

Chemical weed treatment is applied directly to weeds in the kerb line of our roads and footways. It will typically take about three to five weeks for the treatment to take effect – after this, road sweepers will come along to remove dead weeds.
