Less than half of the city is satisfied with the cleanliness in Liverpool a council survey has found.
Despite Liverpool Council spending £8.5m a year on street cleaning and a further £800,000 clearing fly-tipping, its own survey found just 43% of people in the city think it is clean. The findings of the survey are to be debated by members of the council’s neighbourhoods committee next week.
The report said the local authority has ultimate responsibility for cleaning public spaces it owns, including roads, pavements, alleyways, parks and greenspaces. The services provided include litter picking, litter bin emptying, mechanical sweeping, street washing, weed, leaf, graffiti, fly posting and fly tipping removal.
