Flytipping, misplaced bins, and Council-owned rubbish, 11th April
Can something please be done about the utter midden that is the corner of Cambridge Avenue and Pilrig Street?
There is constant flytipping here, several bins that don't belong here, bits of metal left behind by the Council, as well as those red and white crash barriers, which have been there since 2020, and have not been removed.
It is a disgrace. I have been reporting problems on this corner for over 10 years now, and if anything, the problem has been getting steadily worse - the indifference shown by the Council for the maintenance of the street actively encourages people to dump rubbish there.
