Looking after our hedges

This week, I made several walkabouts of the Hillhead area with residents and various officers from the Council, Strathclyde Police and Glasgow Community Safety Services. Littering problems on pavements are ongoing concerns and hedges are seem as gathering places for rubbish.

 Hedgerow in Gibson Street.

There is a requirement to conserve and manage our hedges as they are an important feature of our streets providing privacy, a wildlife haven, and  a resource to alleviate air pollution or flood risk.
