Huge amount of rubbish now building up
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7329392.
The situation of rubbish is getting far worse, i can see this has been reported before but nothing has been done. I believe its the lorry drivers who are going to the heywood distribution centre, you really need some cameras here. Its been going on for years. Your sign that states £2500 fine for littering is being used as target practice.

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. We’ve identified a number of ‘hotspots’ on the network. We’re pleased to tell you litter collections across the Northwest network are set to commence from late April. While specific timeframes for individual locations cannot be provided, please rest assured efforts are ongoing to clear the network efficiently.
Kind regards
National Highways
