Meanwhile, there were a few areas which have been listed as seriously littered and they include Galvone in Limerick, Farranree in Cork and Dublin’s north inner city.

According to Breaking News, Conor Horgan of IBAL said:

“Kildare has just been deemed the cleanest town for 2016 by IBAL Litter League.

An Taisce monitored the surveys on our behalf. We had no black spots but we did have three areas that were seriously littered, they were all city areas: Dublin’s North Inner City, Faranree in Cork City and Galvone in Limerick City.”
