Litter on embankment
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9896135.
I am a senior paramedic team leader at Stockport Ambulance Station. Our ambulance station borders the M60. On the two embankment areas which are fenced off there is loads of rubbish/litter that people have obviously discarded from cars. Looking out on it is becoming quite an eyesore and we would like this litter removed and the area tidied up.
I have been working here for 8 years now and do not recall at any point litter ever being removed from this area.

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
