Litter at J11 of M5. Really bad!
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8754870.
There is a really increase in litter on the approach to Junc 11 of the M5 joining on the approach from Gloucester. All the grassed areas are awash with it. Would be great to see it clean and maintained.
Thank you. Gloucester resident

Thank you for contacting National Highways about litter on the M5, junction 11 exit slip. We appreciate you taking the time to contact us about this.
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
