From mid-June you should expect to see improvements to street cleaning in and around Highbury.  Street cleaning service in residential roads that will occur on the same day that refuse and recycling collections are made to ensure roads are left clean and tidy.

The street cleaning service will also feature mobile ‘team sweeps’ that will enable a greater emphasis on litter collection and the ability to target litter hot spots at times of need. For example in high pedestrian areas, or outside schools during or after peak times.    This also means if there is a problem in your road that needs sorting outside of your normal street sweeping day - let us know and we can get it sorted.

The Green Team will work alongside the refuse and recycling crews. They will be monitoring service delivery, encouraging the crews to do better, by putting lids back on bins, clearing up spillage and dealing with your eqnquiries.

They will also be running a ‘Love the Street you Live In’ to encourage residents to take more care and litter less, making Highbury better for all of us!

Come along to Logs, Stag Beetles and Nettles on May 24th on Highbury Fields.  From 11am - 1 pm.
