Congratulations to City of York Council.

On Tuesday they had a team of people litter picking along the B1228 (Elvington Lane) all the way from the Air Museum to the Grimston Bar roundabout.

I drive along here on a regular basis and it was beginning to look like a refuse dump.

The team filled countless refuse sacks, I lost count there were so many, and the road and verges now look like they should.

I would like the council and the team of litter pickers to know that what they have done is appreciated.

Harry Edessis,

Osbaldwick, York
