School Transport

All bus operators of home-to-school transport have been contacted today and at this time, dependant on whether or not the schools are open, contracts will operate from the nearest main road to the home address. Parents of children using home to school transport should contact the bus operators for the latest information and advice.


Waste Collections

No waste or recycling collections will take place on Monday 5th, and collections are expected to be significantly disrupted next week. Please keep an eye on these bulletins, social media and websites and we will update you as soon as we can.
Please be aware that many of our waste and recycling crews double as drivers for the gritters, those who live locally are also being drafted in to support snow clearance teams.
