Litter at this junction

Reported via desktop in the Main Carriageway (NH) category anonymously at 08:19, Tue 30 December 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8603996.

Hello I have reported several times about the large amount of litter which has built up at this junction - the verges (which are quite steep at this point due to the much higher slip roads leading up to the A-road), central reservation and slip road, however nothing is ever done about it. Are you just waiting for the grass to grow to cover it?

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
