Why knotweed spreads in Cheshire
The Weaver, the Mersey and the Shropshire Union canal carry rhizome across Cheshire, while the chemical and salt industry brownfield belt around Runcorn and Northwich holds long-established stands on land now being redeveloped.
Main local pressure: Weaver and Mersey corridors and industrial brownfield redevelopment.
