Description

A five year #Be Responsible Campaign has encouraged use of litter bins and other pro-environmental behaviours. As a result of this, the majority of residents and visitors to Trafford comply, however, in a number of areas problems persist in respect of waste being dumped in alleyways and litter being dropped. Street cleansing waste has increased considerably as we collect even more dumped waste and litter from our streets and alleyways. Previous approaches to tackling litter, dog fouling and small scale fly-tipping have been met with limited success despite dedicated and significant marketing campaigns. It is therefore determined that enhanced enforcement should be introduced alongside the #Be Responsible campaigns to ensure that we take action against those individuals who do not respond the calls of the council to respect the local environment. There is a needs to scale up operations to engender the required behavioural change, backed by a robust enforcement regime which includes face to face interaction with individuals through additional authorised enforcement officers.
