Considerable amount of litter, bottles etc on all tje slip roads leading up from m6 on the roundabout and road up to jct at Orrell Road, 9th February

Fri, 09 Feb 2024 12:22:25 +0000
53.534777 -2.698068

As above, looks absolutely disgraceful and does nit look welcoming to anyone leaving at the jct. Grass is only ever cut once in summer amd then only the edges rather than the whole area so it's difficult to see traffic on the roundabout. Surely a local business could sponsor and maintain tje area ?
