Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Solar Park farms, motorway and out of town verges are bare, Planting green spaces with wild flowers margins would benefit pollinators and drivers, but also cut costs on Council budgets. Creating a scheme to plant our verges would also benefit drivers giving our country side more colour and purpose.
