The amount of Litter and debris along the M50 Central reserve is becoming hazardous with whole truck tyre carcases evident along with much heavy littering. I know this is not a fault of NH but somebody has to clean the network. I would be keen to know what your proposed cleansing regime is and when you Framework Maintenance Contractor is due to get around to undertaking this work

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
