Ongoing Litter and Dog Fouling Problems....
The Commissioners are considering various strategies in response to problems with litter being thrown from vehicles in the Parish. The A2 Coast Road is particularly blighted by this problem and the Commissioners have increased the frequency of litter picks that occur along this highway. Litter, largely in the form of a particular brand of cigarrette packets, is also a problem on the A15 between Port Mooar and Port e Vullen.
Dog fouling on the walkway around Gob ny Rona is causing nuisance to residents and walkers on the coastal footpath. The Commissioners are to consider a range of options in conjunction with the landowners, MNH, and the Department of Infrastructure who are responsible for rights of way.
Legislation is in place which allows for the prosecution of anyone littering or leaving dog faeces in public areas. Please contact the warden on 422148 if you have information that would assist us in keeping Maughold free from litter and dog fouling.
