I have carried out a windscreen (from the car) inspection of Bourne End Road and Astwood Road down to the local authority boundary, Crawley Road, College Road, Shire Lane, Moulsoe Road from the junction with Shire Lane to windsock corner and WSC to Lodge Road.
Following last month’s engagement with CBC there was genuine improvement on the verges. Some ditches however are in a poor state. The last time I checked the deep ditch beside the football club it had quite a lot of debris. Bourne End Road has been reported as litter strewn. It could do with a pick but its not as bad as the original four roads tackled by ‘T’ Force.
The worst offender currently is Shire Lane, which has areas of accumulated rubbish. I will recommend that we approach CBC environmental management for another ‘pick’.
I also think we should write to the university and Nissan/Trafficmaster about evidence that a lot of rubbish – bottles, cans and food wrapping is thrown from cars on the roads leading to the campus and the tech park. This would be a polite request that they periodically remind staff/students that littering our roads is a pretty anti-social way to behave.
