2024/25 Roadside slashing program
Our summer roadside slashing program started on 6 November 2024.
We split the slashing contract into six geographical areas and start our program in the west of the shire progress east and north. We aim to maintain flexibility and the schedule may change based on weather conditions, seasonal growth rates and the curing of grass across the municipality.
We will provide regular updates as the program progresses across the shire. This work is one of our key responsibilities as we play our role in fire season preparedness.
You can find below our detailed scheduled slashing program:
