Keeping the streets clean
Last year, we also invested more in keeping the streets clean. We invested £420,000 into multiple initiatives including a dedicated team for the Ball Hill area, enhanced suburban shopping site coverage, and increased mechanical sweeping across the city. Alongside this, we also cut our fly-tipping response times from five days to one and a half days.
This year we're going further and investing more. We'll be targeting more areas of the city with the help of two new dedicated clean-up crews.
