Milkwood Road taken over by illegal dumping

The dumping takes place on the sidewalk right outside people's homes, making the area an eyesore for residents

Milkwood Road in Smartiesville has been taken over by illegal dumping due to people simply discarding their rubbish on the pavement.

Milkwood Road resident Anil Badri is tired of the area looking like a dump-site. He brought the problem to the attention of IFP National Council member Cllr Abbas Warasally.

The area is being plagued with people dumping asbestos (which is harmful to humans), dog faeces, rubble, grass cuttings and broken glass bottles. The dumping takes place on the sidewalk right outside homes in Milkwood Road, making the area an eyesore for residents.

Cllr Warasally makes an appeal to the community of Smartiesville to contact Public Safety on 036-631-1777 if they see anyone dumping illegally.

Cllr Warasally says he is very disappointed that people have so little care for the area in which they live that they don’t mind seeing it turning into a rubbish dump.
