Street cleaning and litter

Fly-posting is when people put up unauthorised posters and stickers in public places. 

It can be unsightly and make an area feel unsafe and uncared for. If it’s not removed the posters slowly rot, becoming more unsightly and causing litter.

What we are doing to tackle fly-posting

We are responsible for cleaning items attached to trees, bridges, lamp posts, road signs and other street furniture. As well as removing fly-posting, we also take action against the people responsible. 

We have powers to prosecute both the people putting up the material and the businesses being advertised. We’re building a database of offenders and we aim to prosecute any business that is caught more than once.
