The uncut verges in Oakham are a disgrace and out of keeping with policy since we moved to Oakham in 2015. The town roadside green areas look abandoned and derelict and the weed growth is today over a foot high in places.

Reported via mobile in the Missed Grass Cutting category anonymously at 17:52, Thursday 2 July 2026

Sent to Rutland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9723691.

See above. Use our Council Tax to maintain the verges very regularly, like you used to only last year and abandon any ridiculous "plant life" initiative.

  • Thank you for your report. We have assessed the details and the verge maintenance for this area has already been included on our programme of works for this financial year. The next cut for Oakham is scheduled for week commencing 6th July. Regards Rutland Environment Services
