WASTE officers are looking for a fly-tipper who was caught on a hidden camera.

Residents are being asked for information on the fly-tipper who dumped waste and partially blocked Bottom Lane, Seer Green.

The Ford Transit pick-up truck was caught on August 19 at 10.30am by a hidden surveillance camera which had been set up in Bottom Lane, Seer Lane.

Waste Partnership spokesman, David Carroll, said: "This driver has chosen a quiet country lane to dump waste, thinking he would not be seen.

"He dumped waste across the road making it dangerous for other users.

"He did not realise that there was a hidden camera there waiting 24 hours a day, seven days a week to catch him. We hope the public will be able to help our investigation."

Images from the camera show the dumping taking place and it is now being investigated.

The waste was removed from the road within five hours.

If you have any information regarding this incident, or in any other lanes in the area, ring The Waste Partnership for Buckinghamshire on 0845 330 1856.
