A few weeks ago I was going on about rubbish being dumped in the copse between Parkside Lower Recreation Ground and the new Sandringham estate.
Well, it turns out that the area was cleared up last week during Pride in Houghton Day. Yey!
A couple of Biffa’s Task Force removed a lot of items of waste from the woodland area, this included the divan bed, a mattress, a chair and some metal items. The area was also litter picked.
On top of this, they followed up on my earlier request, following the traveller's unauthorised encampment, for a clean-up at the end of Parkside Drive. They arranged for the mechanical sweeper to sweep and clear the cycle path, and then the crew went on to remove some items from the hedge at the edge of the path including a bike, a plastic chair and a large amount of polystyrene packaging.
In all, the crews were on site from 7.30am until around 2.30pm. Job well done, I'd say!
