Verge Cutting Program

The City of Salisbury operates a verge maintenance program to help keep our City clean and tidy.

Verge maintenance cycle occur:

  • Every five to seven weeks
  • Monday to Saturday
  • 6am to 7pm

Verge maintenance includes:

Litter removal

  • Litter is cleared from verges before any maintenance begins.

Tree debris removal

  • Excess tree debris are removed ahead of mowing.

Mowing and edging

  • Verges are mowed and mechanically edged to prevent grass from encroaching on nearby structures.

Weed control

  • Targeted treatment is applied to broadleaf weeds and declared pest plants.

Grass cutting

  • Grass is cut evenly to a height of 50mm; clippings are left on the verge.

Cleaning

  • Paths and driveways are cleared of debris using blowers after mowing and edging.

Street sweeping

  • Streets are swept within 24 to 48 hours following verge maintenance.
