IS it only I and a hand few other citizens who can see the dreadful state of our High Street

and Bridge Street, littered with discarded cigarette ends and disused carrier bags from

people who are too lazy to put their waste rubbish into bins that are provided for them.

Evesham council at one time had a machine called a Scarab to go around cleaning the streets,

but for some unknown reason this machine was sold and the two men who operated it were made

redundant.

Other councils in the area still use this machine to keep their streets clean.

We often hear the council talk of wanting more tourist to visit Evesham, but when

the tourists are here they would like to have clean streets to do their shopping.
