A political party in Trapagaran has urged the local council to take immediate action against illegal landfills that have appeared in the municipality, aiming to prevent public health problems and the proliferation of pests.

A political group in Trapagaran has reported the emergence of illegal landfills in various parts of the municipality. These sites have been found in both secluded areas and common thoroughfares for pedestrians and vehicles, such as along the access road to the Ibarzaharra industrial estate.
What initially appeared to be construction debris has rapidly escalated into a more serious problem, with the presence of abandoned sofas, furniture, appliances, and other household items. This situation not only degrades the urban landscape and natural environment of the town but also poses public health risks, including the potential for rats and other pests to proliferate.

What initially appeared to be construction debris has rapidly escalated into a much more serious situation, with the appearance of sofas, furniture, appliances, and other abandoned items.

The political group warns that a lack of swift action could create a "call effect," leading to an increase in dumping and a worsening of the situation. Similar instances have been noted at the entrance to the Orconera bike path and near the former Babcock & Wilcox dining facilities. Consequently, the minority municipal government has been urged to provide an "immediate and effective" response.
