Where Are Tiverton's Dirtiest Places?

What areas in Tiverton could use an Earth Day cleanup the most? Or a clean up in general.

TIVERTON, RI—Soda cans. 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.

On Saturday, April 28, the town kicks off its Litter Cleanup Week to clear trash and debris from most of the highly visible locations throughout Tiverton.
