A CAMPAIGN aimed at reducing littering, dog fouling and flytipping is already having a significant impact after just one month, says Chichester District Council.
Councillor Roger Barrow, cabinet member for contract services at Chichester District Council, said that cleaners have already noticed a reduction in the number of cigarette ends in the city centre.
He said: “Before the campaign started, we collected 1,221 cigarette ends in Chichester’s city centre within a two hour period on one day.
“We repeated the exercise recently and it had reduced to 400.”
