Litter louts blighting Lancaster's Park and Ride facility
The commuter, who did not wish to be named, said she regularly collects carrier bags full of litter when she is at the site.
The woman, who uses the Park and Ride to car share to work, said the problem is particularly bad on a Monday morning.

“I picked out 16 coffee cups from the hedges one day.
“There is only one bin there, but there’s CCTV and nothing seems to be done about it.
“The Park and Ride is a brilliant resource and nicely lit, but it’s appalling sometimes how much litter there is.”
A spokesman for Lancashire County Council said: “We have a contract in place for the Park and Ride site to be cleaned and the bin emptied every two weeks.
