We complained about the state of the verges a few weeks ago and I was pleasantly surprised to see full rubbish bags lined up on the Salford Road running down from Cranfield last week. I had a call from Mr Chambers checking which roads needed done and I pointed out that in addition to the Salford Road, College, Crawley and Moulsoe Roads were all in desperate need of attention.
It may be the cut these verges had a month ago exposed stuff but there is paper, plastic and carrier bags everywhere in the grass, among the hedges, spreading into some of the fields. Two days later however, the iron maiden and I were speeding along the traditional route and none of the verges had been touched. I rang CBC and asked 'when the contractors were coming back'. Well, of course they weren't. Thankfully we have been promised they are now and the remaining litter strewn verges will get some attention - Tuesday I believe. I've attached a short video of just one stretch on College Road to illusrate the muck.
