Heavy litter M2 onto A2
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7065748.
Huge amount of litter on both sides of the carriageway and verges. Litter decorating trees - everywhere! All the way into A2 Eltham slip road area, with laybys and the verges overflowing with rubbish.

Thank you for contacting National Highways about litter.
Subject to gaining the necessary authority, we’re currently in the process of arranging litter clearance activities from junction 6 of the M2 up to the A2 junction in both directions. This is expected to take place in phases over the next few months into Spring
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
