CHERWELL District Council enforcement offers want the public’s help after more tyres were dumped in the district.
In the latest incident, 125 tyres were dumped in a lay-by on Fenny Compton Road, Claydon.
It happened between 7pm on Wednesday, May 31, and 6am on Thursday, June 1, and it was the second time tyres had been dumped in that area.
More than 1,000 dumped tyres have been cleared up by Cherwell District Council since the beginning of 2012 and council enforcement officers are investigating.
Nigel Morris, the district council’s lead member for clean and green policies, said: “We really need help from the public to clamp down on this.
“Tyres should be disposed of in the correct way, but this costs companies money, so the less scrupulous will dump them in secluded spots.
“I would appeal to anyone with information or who spots anything suspicious to report it to us in confidence.”
Anyone who spots anything suspicious or feels they have information which might help the council tackle this problem can email customer.service@cherwell-dc.gov.uk or call 01295 227983 confidentially.
