REPLY:

While this area has not previously been maintained by the Public Realm Section arrangements will be made to bring it under maintenance.  The works required to do this include cutting back of previously uncut grass and shrub areas.  The works will be carried out on a phased basis over the next 12 months having regard to the Wildlife Act and restrictions on cutting vegetation.
