Street cleaning: our performance

We want over 72 per cent of our streets to continually meet Government cleaniness standards. Our streets are inspected once every three months by the organisation EnCams (which stands for Environmental Campaign) who provide the information below.

 


EnCams inspect and rate our roads by looking at the following environmental issues separately for the Mayor of London:

 

  • litter and detritus (known as BV199a)
  • graffiti (known as BV199b)
  • fly-posting (known as BV199c)


Previous results for litter and detritus

2004/05

Across the whole year 66per cent of our streets were classed as being acceptable level of cleaniness.

2005/06

Across the whole year 70 per cent of our streets were classed as being acceptable level of cleaniness. This 70 per cent is taken from an average from the following results-

Inspection 1 (covering April-July 2005): 68per cent streets were up to standard

Inspection 2 (covering August- December 2005): 75 per cent of streets were up to standard

Inspection 3 (covering January- March 2006): 68 per cent of streets were up to standard
2005/06's result put us 13th out of 28 other London boroughs that are also inspected by EnCams.

This put us 23rd out 28 London boroughs that are inspected by EnCams.
