COULD someone possibly tell me the reason behind the apparent killing off of huge swathes of grass at Shaftesbury, between the Harlequin Roundabout and the railway bridge?

They are defined areas, and it is obviously being done for a purpose, possibly to save on grass-cutting costs or for future development. If there are plans for the area, please can we have an artist’s impression?
