An East Kilbride councillor has called for a new task force to tackle the blight of fly-tipping and litter in the town and beyond to be set up as a matter of urgency.
Gerry Convery has said he is inundated with complaints over fly-tipping and Lanarkshire Live has also reported instances of it countless times.
Just last month a pile of waste was dumped on the road at the closed Crags Bridge near Strathaven and in the last few days angry locals discovered piles of waste dumped on Glassford Road.
