A PLAN to stop rubbish and litter clogging up a city's waterways is due to be launched.
Salford city council has agreed new steps to tackle the problem after growing concerns about the impact of rubbish ending up in waters around the city, especially in Salford Quays.
Quays residents have sounded the alarm about "commercial" level waste washing into the area from Greater Manchester's rivers, with one local claiming fire extinguishers and other large items are being pulled from the water during litter picks.
The new plan to address the issue will bring together businesses, community groups, and council officials to find ways to reduce the amount of rubbish in the city's rivers and water systems.
This includes calling for owners of waterways to clean up and maintain the waters under their control.
