The issue started on Gig Lane in Woolston back in March last year.
What initially began as garden waste being dumped has led to household waste, furniture, building materials, and more.
There are concerns that the rubbish is ‘rat infested’ and that some of the building material could contain asbestos.
The most recent lot of fly-tipping consisted of 30 sheets of plasterboard and dry wall adhesive.
Over the last 16 months, residents have reported the issue to the council around six times – as well as to the police.
Photographic evidence has even been provided.
One couple, who cannot even gain access to their own garage because of the mess, told the Warrington Guardian that despite the reports made, only one environmental health officer has visited the site.
They said that the council has told them they cannot remove the fly-tipping as it is on an unadopted road.
“We are not asking them to remove it, we are asking for their help or assistance as per their web site where they state: ‘We can take formal legal action such as prosecutions and fixed penalty notices, where there is evidence to show who was responsible. This evidence could be from a witness, CCTV footage, mobile phone recordings or finding evidence in the waste. Where we cannot take formal action, we consider, verbal and written warnings’,” the residents said.
The Warrington Guardian contacted the council about the issue; however, no response has been received so far.
