Vegetation control along roadsides is necessary to maintain the integrity, function and safety of those systems. Highway and roadsides serve as a major source for the spread of invasive and noxious plants. The rapid and abundant growth of vegetation is a major cause of concern.<\/p>\n

Unmanaged noxious weeds can become a hazard to roadside safety, blocking the view of traffic control signs, approaching vehicles, pedestrians or wildlife. Control of these weeds improve visibility, keep sidewalks and break-down lanes clear, allow drainage systems to function properly, preserve pavement from root breakthrough, and maintain overall road safety.<\/p>\n

All Habitat Services regularly provides their vegetation management services for the State of Connecticut on divided highways, Rights of Way and specific locations. Application of selective and non-selective herbicides under guide rail, to paved islands, along jersey barriers and around light poles and signs are used for the control of Phragmites and other vegetation.<\/p>\n
