Cities around Ireland cleaning up their act on litter

There was a slight fall-off in the number of clean towns in Ireland, last year, but the number of clean cities increased.

According to Irish Business Against Litter (IBAL), despite the fall-off, no towns were deemed ‘litter blackspots’ in 2015 and only one ‘seriously littered’, of the 40 towns and cities surveyed.

The business group’s survey revealed that cities are improving, although Dublin’s north inner city and Cork’s Farranree remain littered.
