There is an INCREDIBLE amount of litter collecting along this street between Hwy 67 and Westmoreland. It has been brought to the attention of TxDot and City of Dallas and no long term solution or responsibility has been taken. I organized a school group to pick up a section of the area in late November and it is already trashed again. The road is VERY busy and the space too narrow for volunteers to maintain. This area needs a regular quarterly sweep by one of these agencies. This is an eyesore and per the mayor's "grow south" initative, this gateway into Oak Cliff needs to be cleaned up! The source of this trash is from the public but also from litter coming off of trucks/trash trucks on Loop 12.

This Web site is not the place to report Code violations or service requests to the City of Dallas. Users should call 3--1-1 or download the free Dallas 3-1-1 app to report concerns. The app will let you upload photos and issues go directly to the City of Dallas.
As a courtesy, I have alerted the Sanitation Transfer Station manager to this concern. If you wish to report litter caused by City trucks, please call 3-1-1 and ask them to enter a "Complaint" Service Request.

City of Dallas called me to report they had performed a "courtesy cleaning" because the litter is actually the responsibility of TxDot. They did this soon after my call on 2/10. TRASHED AGAIN: Today, there are bags hanging in the scruffy underbrush and trash scattered about. In addition, someone has dumped branches and bags of trash. I will 311 this.
Also about this time, I also sent an email to the TxDot contact, Freddy Navarrette and copied the CoD Southwest Service Area Coordinator Kevin Acosta a request for TxDot to DEEP clean this area regularly, at least 4x a year. I suggested cutting back the underbrush which the trash clings to keep it cleaner longer. Also suggested posting signs about "Stash your Trash" and on a educational level, DISD work in an anti-litter piece in their curriculum working with Don't Mess with Texas and Keep Texas Beautiful which have such available. I have not heard back from Mr Navarrette.

On the 3rd or 4th call she said the supervisor confirmed it was. I asked if they could also trim the brush, as this contributes to the litter problem (something very obvious when viewing) but she said she would have to ask the supervisor. OY. This was a week or so ago. Nothing done yet. Guess I will make another call.
