The street services team

Street Services

The service is made up of a team of four area managers, each responsible for a neighbourhood co-ordination area of the borough.  Street services provide a front-line service working all over town on our streets, verges, parks, in churchyards and schools. The team has responsibility for the delivery and management of a wide range of services on public (council owned) land including:

  • a multi-skilled streets service operation including street cleansing and general ground care
  • horticultural maintenance and development in parks, public open spaces and highway verges as well as Golden Gates Housing Trust properties and in excess of eighty schools
  • maintenance of cemetery and closed churchyard grounds
  • shrub and rose beds
  • sports pitches
  • clean and green environmental issues where environmental design is used to change and improve community living
  • rapid response fly-tipping removal team
  • litter removal and the provision and emptying of litter bins
  • mechanical sweeping
  • offensive or racist graffiti removal
