Litter Management

There are four elements in the anti-litter campaign.

  • Education and awareness to prevent litter.
  • The litter warden pursues and prosecutes identified offenders.
  • Street sweeping by the Borough Council Roads Dept focussed on the city centre.
  • Involvement of local residents groups in litter prevention and upkeep of their own areas.
We are convinced that education, awareness and involvement of local residents is key to preventing and reducing littering and improvement of the appearance of residential areas.

The Borough Council budget only allows for very occasional sweeping of residential areas, so to keep them looking well its important that residents become actively involved in upkeep of their areas.

Measures to free Sligo from litter are set out in the Litter Management Plan.
