Refuse bins blocking footpath, 13th March

Wed, 13 Mar 2024 17:25:16 +0000
51.338289 -0.101875

The four refuse bins used by 59 Selcroft Road Purley are persistently left in the footpath blocking the footpath and forcing pedestrians to walk into the road. This is dangerous, particularly the elderly and those walking with pushchairs and the like. In the past, we have moved the bins to the end of 59 driveway or onto the grass verge. They always eventually reappear blocking the footpath. We would appreciate residents of 59 Selcroft being reminded and their social responsibility to the community and neighbours. Hopefully this will help to resolve the matter amicably.
