BBC News - Extra waste crews 'to tackle Exeter rubbish backlogs'

BBC News - Extra waste crews 'to tackle Exeter rubbish backlogs': "Exeter Council is to bring in extra resources to tackle rubbish backlogs caused by recent snow and public holidays, the city's lord mayor says.

Angry residents said they were concerned they may have to wait for up to a month for bin collections.

Mounds of rubbish blocking alleyways and streets have led to complaints about rats and possible health hazards.

Mayor Marcel Choules said he was told the cleansing department was to bring in extra staff to clean up the city."
