Who is responsible for grass cutting in my area?
The majority of the grass cutting across Cambridgeshire is carried out by one of our sub-contractors. However, formal agreements are in place with some Parish Councils to carry out grass cutting in their own villages.
If you have a query about grass cutting in your village or neighbourhood, please check the lists to ensure you are contacting the correct organisation.
Please see the map below to view verge cutting and town/village grass cutting routes in Cambridgeshire.
Towns and villages
Within urban areas and villages, we cut the grass three times a year. Our first village cut for 2018 was in April/May. Our second cut began in July. You can find details of which villages we cut and the day the cut will happen below
Rural and principle road verges
On principle roads and road verges between villages, a grass cut is done twice a year. Our first cut has now been completed. Our second cut will begin Monday 6 August. Details can be found in our verge cutting schedule below.
