The Focus Team as started a rolling programme of street surveys to find out what issues are of most concern to the residents. 

So far they have covered Huddlestone, Pevensey, Vansittart and Hesketh Roads. The survey has revealed that many local residents, including Lib Dem Focus Team member, Rupert Alexander, are sick and tired of walking down dirty streets in Cann Hall. As Ruper says: 

“We rarely see a street sweeper. Our roads go for weeks without being swept.” 

Rupert made enquiries and was very surprised to discover that these roads are scheduled to be swept every Tuesday and Friday. In fact Hesketh and Vansittart should be swept additionally on Thursday, and Odessa Road every day. Rupert says: 

“This doesn’t happen!” 

If your road sweeping does not happen contact the Council on 8496 3000 or on-line at: www.walthamforest.gov.uk where you can also check when your road is scheduled to be swept.
