Overflowing bins turning Llandudno into a Christmas health hazard! 🎄🗑️ Over the festive period, the streets were littered with rubbish, as bins in this charming Welsh town were left unemptied. Residents and councillors were not pleased, describing the situation as a “health hazard.” Overflowing with waste, including dog poo bags, the mess was deemed “absolutely disgusting” by frustrated locals.
Conwy County Council assures that their waste disposal teams were out and about between Christmas and New Year, but with bins crammed full, people resorted to leaving waste around containers. The council expressed disappointment, urging locals to be responsible with their rubbish and avoid fly-tipping. “If a bin is full, find the next one or take your rubbish home,” they reminded residents.
Llandudno councillor Louise Emery called for action, highlighting the need for sufficient staffing during busy festive periods. With more people enjoying the lovely weather and out visiting, the bins filled up fast. Emery shared her concerns, asking the council to ensure public bins are emptied more regularly to avoid such situations in the future.
The council spokeswoman highlighted efforts over the weekend to clear the mess, with staff out from 7am-3pm for bin emptying and litter picking, but the issue persists. It’s a call to action for everyone to pitch in and keep Llandudno clean and welcoming. Let’s all do our part to keep the town tidy and safe! 💪🌟
