SEDGEMOOR District Council workers are expected to spend a total of 15 hours cleaning Bridgwater and North Petherton following the carnivals.
The council employs 20 staff to sweep and collect rubbish overnight following each event, at a cost of nearly £10,000.
A council spokesman said it would take workers nearly eight hours to cover the two and a half mile route in Bridgwater – and longer if it is windy.
