Thank you for your enquiry.
Lincolnshire County Council undertakes three cuts per annum on urban and rural grass within the highway, for safety reasons only, in accordance with LCC policy.
It is inevitable that at times the weather conditions will have been favourable to rapid growth, which will result in there being more arisings present once the grass has been cut. Whilst we do not remove any arisings from the grass cutting operation, our operatives make every effort to ensure that cut grass is deposited evenly across the cut area and not left in windrows and that any excess clippings which fall onto any road, driveway or footway are to be swept up on the day the grass is cut and spread evenly across the previously cut grass area. Please be assured that we do try our utmost to reduce any impact on residents, but we are unable to control the movement of arisings once we have vacated a site.
LCC undertakes a cyclical drainage cleansing programme, but please report any localised flooding as this is dealt with on a case-by-case basis. Thank you for reporting this matter.
