'It’s getting worse and worse' Residents complain of litter covered streets in Cardiff

Frustration is growing in Cardiff suburbs over streets covered in waste and litter. Recent photos shared on social media show Llandaff Road, which runs through Canton and Pontcanna, covered in litter on the pavements.

A number of residents in Canton and Pontcanna have said the issue has become worse in recent months. Some added that it often spikes following collection days or warmer weather.

One resident who lives in Pontcanna said: “It’s terrible. It’s been getting worse and worse in Pontcanna for years now. Part of the issue is bags being ripped open or presented on the wrong days and left out. I’ve lived and worked across a number of places in England and Wales and Cardiff is probably the dirtiest city I’ve spent time in sadly.”
