Businesses in Burnham-On-Sea are calling for more frequent rubbish collections over the summer months.
Traders at the latest Chamber Of Trade meeting called on Sedgemoor District Council to increase street cleaning along the High Street and Esplanade.
“Bins along the seafront frequently overflow during the day and evening because of the scheduling of the collections,” said Louise Parkin of the Pavilion. “There are also weeds growing up through the pavements in several spots.”
Joan White of the Tickle Your Taste Buds cafe on the High Street suggested that a street cleaner should be introduced in the town over the summer in a similar way to Weston.
Cllr Eric Gill, Chairman of Burnham Town Council’s Town Improvements Committee, said he would be taking up the matter with Sedgemoor’s Clean Surroundings Team.
