With grass continuing to grow rapidly, targeted grass cutting<\/strong> helped control overgrowth, particularly in high-visibility areas. Pavement weeding and clearing<\/strong>, along with road and alleyway sweeping<\/strong>, ensured that pedestrian routes and stormwater inlets remained unobstructed. In addition, the team began clearing weeds and creepers on the retaining walls along both the on- and off-ramps this past week.<\/p>\n
