Residents and shopkeepers in Girona’s Barri Vell say Carrer del Vern has recurring problems with street cleanliness. They report overflowing bins, urine and faeces on the public street.
Those affected say they have sent complaints to the municipal incident mailbox, but have not seen effective action. They say the situation has worsened in recent days and that it is embarrassing to receive customers in these conditions.
Girona City Council says it has recorded only four complaints about this specific location since 2025. That figure does not match the residents’ account of a repeated problem.
The issue adds to wider concerns about street cleaning and municipal services in Girona’s historic centre. Readers can follow more local coverage on our news tag page.
