-
Enable us to learn more about how bins in the Hackbridge area are being used.
-
Target resources to where they are needed most.
-
Reduce street clutter and improve the street scene in Hackbridge.
-
Ensure litter bins do not overflow, improving street cleanliness.
-
Reduce vehicle movements in the area, cutting pollution and lowering our carbon emissions.
Monitoring and review:
We will be closely monitoring how the new bins are working during the trial period. Updates with key performance measures will be published on the Council’s website.
