Friend of Manor Ward and Sefton Council Leader reports on fly tipping, some of which in the lanes between Lunt Village and Thornton:
Fly tipping is anti social behaviour and criminal but it is very hard to catch those who do it.
The lanes between Lunt Village and Thornton suffer particularly badly and that has been the case for some time now. I often see tipping and report it to the Council. I have found tyres, asbestos, white goods, furniture etc. and not just around Lunt Village. Recently I have reported glass bottle tipping in Spuriers Lane Melling, general tipping in Sandy Lane Melling, Huge amounts of commercial tipping in the car park by Handcock’s Canal Bridge in Aintree Village and only yesterday found a dumped sofa in Poverty Lane Maghull.
The tippers cost us all money as the Council has to pay to take away their rubbish that they can’t be bothered disposing of in the appropriate way.
As reported in your Winter FOCUS, received either side of Christmas, Manor Councillor John Gibson comments: “It is difficult to catch those who are doing the dumping but we are working very closely alongside the environmental services in Sefton to try and end this plight. The bottom line is it’s dangerous, irresponsible and unsightly.”
Your FOCUS team encourage all incidents to be reported by calling the following number: 0845 140 0845.
