They will be able to promptly report and arrange clearance of incidents of fly-tipping, prevent cases of littering and dog fouling, and issue on-the-spot fixed penalty notices (FPN) to offenders where necessary. The patrols will support the councils to be better able to proactively respond to known environmental problems.

Kim Challis, Regional Managing Director (UK&I) at APCOA said: “We are really pleased to be working now with Ealing, Harrow and Hounslow councils, using our extensive experience in environmental enforcement to help tackle anti-social problems. We welcome the opportunity to make a difference to the local communities across these three London boroughs.

Further details about fixed penalty notices can be found on each council’s website.
