Reseeding grass verges

Hills Road verges were reseeded using EIP funds

Liberal Democrats on Cambridge City Council have put £200,000 of council funds at the disposal of the Council’s Area Committees, in order that the people who live there can take decisions on spending to improve the local environment. Suggestions for improvements go to the South Area meetings.

Please let one of your councillors have your ideas for improving the local area. To start you off, in Queen Edith’s environmental improvement grants have paid for:

* dropped kerbs to help wheelchairs and pushchairs cross the road
* tactile paving on a passageway, so it can be found by blind people
* a traffic-calming scheme
* re-seeding of grass verges

For further information, please visit Cambridge City Council’s website. You can download an application form here: EIP suggestions
