A man from Hull was asked to pay an \u00a3800 fixed penalty notice after he was caught on CCTV dumping waste in a layby on the A1079. The fly-tipper was seen on video to pull into the layby on the Hull<\/a> to York road, near Walkington, in a van and then leave carpet and several bags of waste next to a litter bin provided by East Riding Council.<\/p>\n The offence was captured on one of the council\u2019s mobile CCTV cameras. The incident was investigated by the council\u2019s streetscene enforcement officers.<\/p>\n The driver of the van admitted the offence in an interview with officers and was issued with the \u00a3800 fixed penalty notice for the illegal<\/a> deposit of waste on land, earlier this month. This fixed penalty was subsequently paid.<\/p>\n East Riding of Yorkshire Council<\/a> said litter bins in laybys are provided for litter only, not for large items of rubbish. No waste should be left next to them.<\/p>\n Carl Skelton, director of streetscene services at East Riding Council, said: \u201cWe provide litter bins in some laybys in order to prevent littering in these areas. To have someone dump waste right next to one is just not acceptable.<\/p>\n \u201cOur household waste recycling sites are provided across the East Riding and also in Hull for residents of these areas to dispose of their larger items of waste properly and legally if they can\u2019t put it in their bins at home.\u201d<\/p>\n Did you know you can make Hull Live a preferred source of Hull news in Google, which will mean you get more of our breaking news, exclusives, and must-read stories straight away?
