Dear Ms Davis,

Thankyou for your request for information.

The majority of road verges across the Breckland district are owned and
are the responsibility of Norfolk County Council as the highway authority.

May we suggest you contact Norfolk County Council direct with regards to
an ecological protection scheme which they may run.

Regards

Lisa Henery
