Recorded incidents of fly-tipping, have plunged in the Linlithgow ward in the last three months.
Neighbourhood Environment Teams (NETs) land and countryside officers recorded only 12 reports of fly-tipping in ward from 1 July to 30 September this year. That compares with 32 for the same period in 2021.
Delivering his report for the NETs operations to a meeting of Linlithgow Local Area Committee, Countryside manager Andy Johnston did add a note of caution that some of the uplifts from the last three months may have gone directly to waste contractors rather than through council transfer stations.
