Residents and a pub owner are demanding action over a Nottingham street that is suffering due to overflowing bins. People living on Cromwell Street, Radford, say rubbish is being blown onto their front gardens every day from commercial bins placed just off Alfreton Road.
They claim this in turn is attracting rats, a concern shared by Rob Gibson, who runs the Running Horse pub, which is situated next to the bins. "People are dumping rubbish on the street," he told Nottinghamshire Live.
"It's very annoying that there are bins out all the time and they attract fly-tippers. I'm trapped in between food premises. I've been complaining about it for so long."
