South Lanarkshire Council have spent £47,000 on collecting 14 tonnes of litter across the area.
During the course of the past few months, council teams have been out cleaning over 75 miles of road and verges around Clydesdale, East Kilbride, Hamilton, Larkhall Stonehouse and Strathaven. The teams collected more than 2800 bin bags, which totalled to 14 tonnes of litter.
The campaign also cost the council almost £47,000 for the extra staff, temporary road restrictions and the disposal of the rubbish.
