The authorities can only do so much when it comes to keeping the streets of Brigg free from litter. Sometimes it must seem like an uphill battle.
North Lincolnshire Council has increased the frequency of bin emptying and street tidying operations at the weekend, for which the community should be grateful.
But early on Sunday morning we passed the Tintabs shelter and noted fast food carton and paper bag litter.
We checked and there was plenty of room in nearby litter bins - just 10 yards away! Not only that, but a brand new bin is in place further along Bigby Street.
Some weeks ago, Brigg Blog flagged up waste bins being full by Sunday morning in the town centre and called for emptying arrangements to be addressed by the council.
But we really need people who buy fast food on Saturday night to play their part by disposing of the left-overs in the bins provided.
