Removing the hedgerows will not only be detrimental to wildlife. They act as a windbreak when using the road, they hold back snow in the winter and this makes the roads safer. When walking or running on these roads they provide cover from the sun in summer and from the winds in winter. They also prevent the roads from flooding as the hedgerows soak up any excess rain water.
