Request ID: FOI-0276-2122 Date published: 25 May 2021
You asked
Following the reply to my email in January regarding the state of the A406 circular which is the responsibility of TFL still no cleaning has occurred.
However, in the last few days the verges along the road have been cut causing all the rubbish in the grass to be cut up and made even worse.
Please can you update me on when the A406 between the M11 junction and the A13 junction will be cleaned and when the last time it was actually cleaned by people collecting the rubbish in bags. Please provide as much information to avoid me having to submit a freedom of information request.
I would also like to know how often it is meant to be cleaned in normal times.
