Attention residents of Southgate. I am pleased to be able to update you regarding a situation that many residents in the area will agree during the summer period in particular, became completely out of hand and uncontrollable.
Since Enfield Council decided to bring in-house the team responsible for cutting grass verges and hedges in the borough, we saw particularly this year a situation where uncontrolled hedges and grass verges caused a danger for both pedestrians and particularly motorists. Many of the enquiries I received in the last few months of 2024 were regarding this issue.
I am pleased therefore that due to the pressure applied to the local authority that they have a clear plan for 2025 ahead. The link attached with the document presentation outlines particularly for Southgate ward where grass verge trimming and hedge trimming will take place and when.
This provides us with a clear timetable of when certain areas will be attended to.I am hopeful that the local authority will live up to its deadline and not disappoint us.
I Encourage residents to click on the link provided and look at the presentation provided by Enfield Council.
Thank you.
