Abuse of litter container

The litter container which was erected and maintained privately on the New Abbey Road has now been removed because the facility was being abused.

This was a most needed facility on the entrance to the town and was used to keep the walkway to the cemeteries clean and tidy. However somebody has been cramming it full with household waste. The same individual has been dumping bags of rubbish on McGarry’s Lane.

A profile of the offender has been made from items found in the waste and the litter warden has been informed. If anyone sees someone dumping illegally, please report them. Tidy Towns can do without this added problem.
