On Thursday 1 September we will be doing the first of our annual cuts to the car park islands. We will be closing sections of the car park so that we can work safely. Sections will be closed using hazard tap and cones so please take notice of this when entering and moving around the car park. Please park around the outer edges of the car park and not around the inner islands where possible.
The islands have been sown with wildflower seeds to create a meadow habitat with a
diverse number of plants. Regular cutting on these islands is required to ensure that the over-vigorous plants do not take over and push out the wildflowers, which provide a home for a wide range of insects. Some areas will be left uncut to provide the insects that live there a home through the winter.
