Proposal
The 2No. 5m section of hedgerow (H1 & H2) is to be removed in order to facilitate the construction of a new rising main and gravity sewer between North Petherton Water Recycling Centre (WRC) and a new development proposed at Junction 24 of the M5. Once the works have been completed, the hedgerow will be reinstated as per STD/836, using a species mix to match the surrounding hedgerows.
