The charity said cafe seating, advertising boards and discarded e-scooters could cause trips and injuries. SLC engagement manager Jack Moffat said the council had "showed a willingness to work on the issues".

Fines for fly-tipping, littering and graffiti could more than double in a local authority from next month. Durham County Council will increase the maximum fixed penalty notice (FPN) for fly-tipping from £400 to £1000, littering from £150 to £250 and graffiti from £100 to £250. The council decided to scrap discounts for early payments last summer. Cabinet member Mark Wilkes said the council had "cracked down on environmental offences" by issuing more fines and increasing prosecutions.
