Mark , in nearly all of your photo’s at this time of year the same thing is prominent , LEAVES ,as a Borough why is it that as the last leaf falls we do not have a policy to quickly start to remove as much of the leaves as possible ???, when i take my partner to work in Chertsey ( Surrey ) there street claning vehicles are out in force , but the only time i see this Borough’s vehicles are on a Sunday usually in Tesco’s ( Duke’s Green ) car park , having a break !!!!!

Also , when are we going to get Litter enforcement officers , or some other title , that have the powers to give fixed penalty notices to people for putting out their rubbish on the public highway ?????

Graham, I will ask some questions about how leaves are dealt with at this time of year becaue you are right in that I have seen a number of instances where leaves and rain have created a potentially slippery footway.
With regards to what is one of my pet hates, I have reported this many times over the years and being able to issue penalty notices is extremely difficult. Another Borough tried to have a blitz but I believe that they came a cropper when challenged in court. My recommendation to residents is to use the eForm on the Hounslow Council website to report bags out early.
