DRAINAGE DITCH MAINTENANCE NOTICE |
What is ditch cleaning? Ditch cleaning is a corrective maintenance method aimed at removing sediment and debris from ditches.
Why is ditch cleaning important? Regular ditch cleaning is essential to direct runoff away from road surfaces and reduce flooding, erosion, and pollution. Excess sediment and debris in ditches can hinder plant growth, increase pollution and lead to flooding.
Above is an example of a newly cleaned ditch. Well maintained ditches positively contribute to the health of the stormwater and surface water environment.
