Fly-tippers leave 100m-long line of waste down Bradford lane over two-week period
A trail of rubbish created an eyesore for locals in Bradford after fly-tippers spent two weeks creating a 100m-long line of waste.
The trail of garbage accumulated down a lane on the outskirts of Bradford, West Yorks, leaving building rubble and materials, domestic waste, including mattresses, sofas, carpets, clothing, toys, tiles, plasterboard and wood.
A staggering four skips were needed to clear up the man-made eyesore.
Mohammed Khan, who obtained video footage of a white tipper truck dumping rubbish, said: ‘This is mindless tipping – I have had to try and move some of the rubbish so I can get past in my car.
‘This is the worst case of fly-tipping I have seen in this area.
‘There are several lorry loads and the rubbish is a mixture of all sorts of things. It is disgusting that people have done this to avoid taking it to a recycling centre.
