Shrubs and hedges on verges and residential areas will be cut once or twice a year. During winter this will be between October and March and a summer visit to manage landscaping which encroaches on paths and traffic sightlines. Work during the bird nesting season (March to September) will be restricted. 

Shrubs and landscaping in ornamental parks such as Poole Park, or Lower Gardens may receive regular and formal maintenance.
