Efforts are underway to remove invasive plants from major roadways. Two prominent invasive plant varieties, knotweed and Phragmites, are the focus of the removal efforts. These plants can cause harm to the environment, wildlife, and infrastructure.

A coalition of partners, including 44 townships and nonprofit organizations, is working together to treat areas overrun with these invasive species. The goal is to manage their spread, prevent infrastructure damage, and maintain safe roadways.

Further details about the invasive plant removal efforts are available from the source, including information about the specific methods being used to treat the affected areas.
