Litter in Ypres

A note has been received from the Ypres Tourist office which Guild members should be aware of:

"We wish to inform you that the local police has started a campaign against illegal waste disposal in Ypres. We think it is important to inform you, to ensure bus drivers tell their customers about this campaign. Under no circumstance is it authorised to dispose of waste on public roads or anywhere else than in public dustbins. The illegal waste disposal will be monitored with unmanned cameras. It seems obvious this is not authorised but it has been demonstrated in the past that not everyone strictly complies with this rule. We would appreciate it if you could pass on this message to your drivers. Many thanks in advance for working towards a clean Ypres with us."


With kind regards,

Peter Slosse,

Director Tourist Office
