The Hedge Cutting Grant Scheme is now open and aims to encourage the cutting of roadside hedges/trees along the Public Road Network. Open to all, individual applicants, communities and groups.

Leitrim County Council wishes to remind all landowners and occupiers that it is the legal responsibility of all landowners and occupiers adjacent to public roads to maintain trees and hedges so that they are not a hazard to people using the road. Hedge Cutting should only be carried out during the period from 1st September to the last day of February
