Rubbish tips set to reopen by the weekend but schools to remain closed until June
RUBBISH tips will be told they CAN reopen but schools are set to remain closed until June at the earliest.
"And today I am announcing that I am asking councils to plan the organised reopening of household waste collection sites.As more people stay home, officials are said to be concerned at the amount of waste piling up. "To safely manage visitor flow and pent-up demand, the police will need to manage inevitable traffic queues at the sites, with consideration needing to be given to whether supportive measures, such as a permit system and longer opening hours might be needed."
The council said they should only be used by those with a genuine need to dispose of extra waste - and only bagged general waste will be accepted. Children across the country, including my three girls, have decorated their bins with colourful pictures to say just that.While it’s important that we show appreciation for what they are doing, we must also make sure they know that we are supporting them.
