Duncan Lewis, Crime Solicitors, Littering crackdown in Hinckley sees 13 motorists fined

Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council in Leicestershire has said a crackdown on littering has resulted in motorists being fined since the campaign began in November 2016.

The council says that officers from the borough council's Clean Neighbourhood team have issued £80 Fixed Penalty Notices to 13 motorists – and council officers have adopted a zero tolerance attitude towards anyone seen dropping litter from vehicles. All the fines imposed so far relate to discarded cigarette ends.

The “hot spot” locations in Hinckley targeted by officers so far include the Northern Perimeter Road, Coventry Road, Dodwells Roundabout, the A5 and McDonalds.

Main road junctions, lay-bys, supermarkets, roundabouts and local shopping areas in other parts of the borough will also be visited during the course of the campaign.

Executive Member for Neighbourhood Services at the borough council, Councillor Mark Nickerson, said:

“This is excellent work by our Clean Neighbourhood team, clearly demonstrating our commitment to stamp out this antisocial behaviour – but what a pity we need to spend costly resources that could be put to far better use, were it not for the actions of the irresponsible few.”
