This modern litter bin in Bigby Street, Brigg, is close to the junction with Princes Street.
Bigby Street is a well-used route by people walking home in
the evening after a trip to the pub.
Following a pint or three, some drinkers fancy something to
eat. So the provision of litter bins is important in the battle against litter
on the streets.
We recently pointed out that some of the litter bins in Brigg
town centre were missing their “business end” which collects the litter,
although the bit fastening them to the post still remains in
place.
North Lincolnshire Council then announced its intention to
expand clean-up and anti-litter operations in Brigg.
Welcome advances have already been made with this. But when
we took the above picture on Friday morning we noted the litter bin near Monument Garage is still
awaiting replacement/refurbishment. Perhaps that’s to be done in the
very near future.
