Published 2 November 2021

Request

How much does the contractor get paid a year to cut the verges throughout the parishes of Welsh Newton and Llanrothal?

Response

Details of the costs of verge cutting are not held at parish level, and therefore we are unable to provide details of the costs at the parishes in question. In relation to grass cutting, the county is divided into different areas (please see the attached map), with the location in question falling under area G. The cost of verge cutting in area G is £3,825.57 per cut (2 cuts per year).
