BURY is cleaning-up it act with new hi-tech anti-litter machines.

The new machines, fitted with dust suppressors and water jets, will become a familiar sight on the town's streets.

Other campaigns to stamp out rubbish eyesores include more litter bins and supplying skips to local groups for community clean-up campaigns.
