ELMBRIDGE GETS NEW LITTER BINS
Several residents have contacted Councillors Ryall and Hyman to ask whether new bins could be installed at bus stops on Cheltenham Road and Barnwood Road as a means of reducing litter.
On an inspection of bus stops in Elmbridge, it was clear that rubbish left at some bus stops was causing a real eye-sore.
Councillor Hyman said: "As someone who regularly uses buses, I feel it is important for bins to be provided.
"The strategic placement of a bin helps to reduce littering."
Councillor Ryall added: "I am very pleased that in response to residents requests we have managed to get three bins installed at bus stops in the ward and are hoping for a fourth.
"This has had a noticeable effect on the amount of litter left in the area."
