Cessation of Household Waste Recycling Centre Summer Thursday Late Night Opening

There has been a long-standing arrangement that during the summer months (April – September) sites will remain open to 8pm on a Thursday.  In the context of wider service and usage these extended hours are not well used; repeated communications through a variety of channels have promoted the service, but it remains underutilised.  As part of the corporate approach to deliver authority wide savings it is proposed that late night opening is stopped in 2024 and a saving of £27k is used to meet pressures elsewhere in the service
