Track being cut up onto Haswell Place.

There is a high summer weed infestation in this section of the gully. These weeds set seed in autumn. Normally this would not be that much of a problem except that this gully has a high water flow during a rain event from a culvert that runs under Haswell Place. This washes weed seed downstream and is causing a reoccurring summer weed infestation along the length of the gully where the restoration is not yet grown enough to shade the summer weeds out.
We see the solution is to clear the perennial weeds (black berry and honey suckle) then plant to eventually shade out any summer weed growth. To do this we need access hence the building of the track.
