A Glasgow resident has been left 'relieved' after a battle with the council to install a gate to prevent extreme fly-tipping has come to an end.
For the past few years, Govanhill locals of Kingarth Lane, situated off Victoria Road have been in an open dispute with Glasgow City Council about installing a barrier to help prevent illegal dumping. Pictures shared on social media of the rubbish were so chronic that the situation was referred to as 'madness' by one homeowner.
Only a few months ago, Glasgow Live reported that the local government was going to charge local residents, of the courtyard to clear the mountains of waste that continued to accumulate. This was after the council had on numerous occasions cleaned up the area, but the rubbish always seemed to come back.
