Entry slip road jct 40M1 n/b

Reported via mobile in the Slip Roads (NH) category anonymously at 13:38, Friday 7 February 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7101332.

There are lots of litter, metal sign stand and traffic cones in the entry slip road N/B from the A638 please could you advise if these eyesores are likely to remain on these verges forever? Also the vegetation on same roundabout has been chopped back revealing all the litter that’s been left behind. Is this Highways responsibility to clear up or Wakefield council?

Updates

  • Thank you for contacting National Highways about litter.

    We have passed your report to our local inspector who will review the issue as part of their next safety inspection and arrange any remedial action.

    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
