SINN Fein Councillor Sandra Duddy has welcomed the removal by council staff of rubbish which had been piling up in the lanes in Bogside.
Said Cllr Duddy said: “I am pleased that the Council have acted so quickly in removing the rubbish in several of the laneways off Elmwood Terrace .
“There was a fear from local residents that a number of items of furniture could be set on fire at the back gates of peoples homes.
“And we have seen on many occasions in this city how dangerous that’s is with oil tanks catching fire.
“I would once again encourage residents to use the FREE bulky lift scheme by the Council if they want rubbish removed,” she added.
