The road is filthy

Point 1, I cant remember the last time I saw our street clean. The dustman dont seem to care about leaving bits and pieces just laying on the road. Every week there are drinks cartons and paper that is left and when it rains it makes the whole street look awful. Can somebody please clean it up or have a word with the dustman to be more careful.

Point 2, The poor people on Alexandra Terrace have never had their street cleaned. When the dustman dont take something it can stay there for weeks until some one does something about it.

Point 3, There always seems to be lots of fag buts and squashed cans on the floor, especially towards maldon road, can this be cleaned?

Offensive? Unsuitable? Tell us

This was reported yesterday and to my amazement just after 9am this morning a road sweeper went up and down a few times and then came back a few hours later. It looked a lot better and then typically a truck went down Alexandra Terrace spread a load of dirt in front of the 2 drive ways.Thank you CBC for acting so qucikly and shame on you to the truck driver.
