Monaghan Town has come in third place of the cleanest towns and cities in Ireland in 2024. Monaghan has been found to be "cleaner than European norms" while Cavan Town, which came in in 17th place is listed as "clean to European norms".
Only Naas and Kilkenny topped Monaghan Town for first and second place. The results of the annual Irish Business Against Litter (IBAL) survey shows in all, 60 per cent of the towns and cities surveyed were deemed 'clean'.
Overall litter levels were on a par with 12 months ago. On a positive note, 2024 saw a further fall in the number of sites within cities and towns that were deemed 'litter blackspots', which suggests that local authorities were generally more effective in tackling urban dumping
