Councillor Tim Rowkins, Chair of the City Environment, South Downs and The Sea Committee, said: “We know that dealing with weeds on our pavements is a top priority for residents and so we are looking at several additional tools to accelerate our weeding and ensure our pavements are accessible for our residents. “I have been regularly meeting with our street team and I was pleased to be able to inspect the new machinery. The brush weeder was particularly impressive. “Our new traffic light system and machinery have meant we’ve been able to tackle weeding more effectively this season, but there is still a lot of progress to be made. We look forward to reviewing and sharing future weeding plans with residents.”
