Disgraceful amounts of litter

Updates

• Thank you for contacting National Highways about litter.

  We passed your report to our local inspector who reviewed the issue as part of safety inspection. They've raised work for this area to be litter picked within the next 28 days.

  Littering by people is, unfortunately, a behaviour that has a big impact on some parts of our roads. We aim to keep our roads as tidy and free of litter as we can. Our litter picking is carefully planned to try to minimise the impact it has on road users and the safety of our people. Litter picks often require lane closures, which are disruptive to traffic flow. To help reduce the frequency of this disruption, where we can, we usually combine our reactive litter picks with other maintenance work which can result in what appears to be a delayed response.

  Kind regards

  National Highways
