    Refuse collection delay – Monday 27 March

    Afternoon folks, just the heads up that a refuse truck on Area 6 needed a trip to the garage mid-way through the collections earlier today.

    Thanks to our mechanical magicians, the vehicle is on the road again – but it does mean the team are a bit behind.

    They will be pulling out all the stops to try and complete the collection today, including pulling in a second truck to help if possible.
