Omg it is like a landfill site

Reported via mobile in the Slip Roads (NH) category anonymously at 12:47, Tuesday 1 July 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7791514.

The slip road from Woolley services to enter back onto the M1 northbound is an absolute disgrace and an environmental hazard. This area needs a litter pick as a matter of urgency.

Updates

  • Thank you for contacting National Highways about litter.

    We can confirm that the road was closed on 1 July 2025 for maintenance, which included litter picking. However, due to multiple findings of human excrement, the cleanup could not be completed. A specialist contractor will be instructed, and both the litter and waste will be removed as soon as possible.

    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
