My opinions weren't fully taken into account and the residents were not canvassed for their opinions. We have been supplied a new bin free of charge, which removes the excess rubbish from the gutter and driveway, but it does not tackle the issue of where the excess rubbish is coming from. Almost 95% of the residents do not recycle their rubbish and consequently the bins are full of glass, plastic and paper, which could be disposed of elsewhere. This is the REAL problem and the solution lies in asking residents to recycle more. The extra bin has NOT improved the situation, as the bins are overflowing still. When there were two bins, people overfilled two bins. Now there are three, people have grown used to it and are overfilling three. We need a proper solution. <br><a href='http://www.fixmystreet.com/report/36801#comment_35787'>Report on FixMyStreet</a> http://www.fixmystreet.com/report/36801#comment_35787 Tue, 06 Jan 2009 13:17:25 +0000
