Abstract/Contents: | "Linear corridors such as roadsides tend to be sources for the spread of invasive plants. Right-of-way managers have limited knowledge, resources and time available to adequately control these invasives. This talk will cover the realities of what roadside managers can and can't do, and how we can help them to manage roadsides to minimize spread of weedy species. Extensive efforts have been made in Wisconsin in the last few years to provide ROW managers with training, BMPs, guidance and in some cases, maps. Local and regional groups are critical to work with highway departments to conduct mapping, provide guidance, and where appropriate, do on-the-ground management. Successes and challenges will be discussed." |
