Eyesore treated!

Authorities have acted swiftly to clear an illicit dumpsite following negative press regarding a pile of solid waste left by the roadside in Sea Cow’s Bay for the last few weeks.

Just hours after BVI News published a photo of the unsightly area on Tuesday, the dumped items—including old appliances, a mattress, and even a door—were removed.

The photo brought attention to the ongoing issue of indiscriminate dumping in the territory, sparking concern about environmental neglect and the need for better waste management practices.

Authorities have yet to comment on measures to prevent similar incidents in the future.

    Put cameras close to the garbage bins and we will see who the culprits are , most culprits are those guys with 3 yard trucks who got jobs to take them to the dump site and instead they put them by the dumpsters so solid waste can o the work for them . Implement heavy fines for those involved..

    So if we send a photo of roadside trash and it’s published then the trash will be magically removed?

    Expect lots of trash photos soon!

    Lot at what a big and clean difference. Sometimes you have to drop embarrassing on people in order for them to do better. I live in Sea Cows Bay and I felt embarrassed when the picture hit the news site. More pictures of other Districts and post the pictures. That is indeed embarrassing to see your District looking like that.
