Road verges - ecological protection scheme

Susan Davis made this Freedom of Information request to Thurrock Borough Council

The request was partially successful.

From: Susan Davis

7 March 2009

Dear Sir or Madam,

If you run an ecological protection scheme for road verges in your
area, please could you provide me with the following details:

a) what protection measures a verge receives when it is included in
the scheme

b) the list of verges covered by the scheme (and their locations -
road name/number and six figure OS grid references would be fine)

c) for each verge, the specific reasons why the verge has been
included in the scheme - i.e. the notable species found there, or
the NVC community present

If you do not run such a scheme in your area, but you are aware
that another body does, please could you refer me to them instead.

Many thanks,

Susan Davis

Dear Susan Davis

The verges that were listed without specific reference to plants etc,
are protected because of their local rather than national biodiversity
and wildlife importance.
