Spraying shall also include the full width of block paved and set paved carriageways including back lanes. An 'assignment' is defined as the complete weed treatment of all of Walsall's Highways. 1.4 The majority of the works can be carried out by some form of ride on machine but there are areas i.e. alleyways, high density housing and town centres which will require treatment using hand held/carried applicators. 1.5 Walsall Council will require the completion of 3 complete weed treatment assignments during the contract year. 1.6 The initial treatment will normally be required to commence during April depending on weather conditions, as the treatment must not be applied during wet weather.
