Cardiff Council’s waste blitz team has cleared a significant amount of litter and fly tipped waste from Rover Way and Southern Way over the last two days.
The clean up operation targeted two of the city’s key routes, where rubbish and illegally dumped waste had built up. Council teams worked to remove the debris and restore the areas to a cleaner and safer standard for motorists, businesses and nearby communities.
The local authority says it wants to keep these areas clean and tidy, but is calling on the public to play their part.
Residents and drivers are being reminded not to throw litter from vehicles or fly tip waste. Street cleansing costs Cardiff around £7 million every year, placing a major strain on public funds.
The council has stressed that littering is caused by a small number of people not thinking about the consequences, and is urging everyone to dispose of rubbish responsibly so money can be spent on other essential services.
If you spot fly tipping or rubbish that should not be there, report it quickly and easily using the Cardiff Gov App: https://orlo.uk/eZI2O
