Littler on embankments and central reservation on M621 between M62 and J1

Reported via desktop in the Main Carriageway (NH) category anonymously at 13:19, Tuesday 23 January 2024

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5480506.

There is lots of litter on both embankments and the central reservation, the litter is soft plastics, larger plastic debris and other general waste which has built up over a period of time. It is unsightly, gives a poor image of the approach to Leeds and is also bad for local wildlife Please could a litter pick be considered?
