We have found that good work done by one service can be undone quite quickly if another area has been neglected. The best example is that a cleared drain will quickly fill up again if the earth and leaves are not cleared from the kerb.
Over the past year we have piloted an idea to try and give residential streets a deep clean. We have engaged the gulley cleaner, weed ripper and mechanical brush all on the same day.
We have also letter-dropped residents prior to the operation to move their cars so we can get to as many parts as possible.
Residents on the street have also taking pride in helping the operation making the day a success.
