Grounds Maintenance - Highway


Service Description: The Isle of Wight Council works in partnership with Wyevale Grounds Maintenance to provide the highway grass cutting service as part of the Integrated Grounds Maintenance Contract. Around 1,350,000 square metres of Highway verges are cut to ensure that people can use roads and pavements safely and to maintain a tidy appearance. This includes verges in residential areas as well as rural verges and visibility splays at road junctions. The growing season for grass normally falls within the months of April, May and June but this is dependent on several factors including rain fall and soil quality.
