Trash Talk: Where Are The Dirtiest Areas In Westborough?

WESTBOROUGH, MA—Diapers. A bag with a half-eaten Whopper. A row of attached rubber tires. Plastic flower pots. Toys. Dental picks (that's a common one). A disco ball or a wig (we've seen both strewn about the land). In too many areas of towns and cities, litter is part of the landscape, blowing in the street, or embedded in the brush on the side of the road.

With Earth Day looming (Earth Day is April 22 this year), most towns and cities are planning their events, and annual community clean-ups.

Westborough celebrates its annual cleanup and event on Saturday, April 21, with cleanups and a picnic lunch at Baystate Commons.

So we ask you, our readers - the residents - where are the most "trashed" areas in Westborough? What needs some attention this Earth Day season, and beyond?
