  • The korean stall on the North Cross Road market have spilt oil onto the surrounding areas and have purposefully dumped their used oil and food waste down the drain causing a blockage and a horrible spell. This has been a re-ocurring issue for a couple of weeks. Many surrounding local residents and businesses have also complained about this smell. This is highly unsanitary and will attract rodents and flies which is offputting and affects businesses.
