Recycling bins in Pruden Close: Update

Hi
Remember the proposal for demolishing the island of trees at the bottom of our road (Pruden close end) for a bottle bank/recycling unit to serve both Pruden close residents and the general public?

So the bad news is that its going ahead.

The good news is that they will be re-positioned right down at the bottom of Pruden close and also around the back behind the garages.

The even better news is that they are solely for the residents of Pruden Close.

So it looks like fears of excessive traffic of the great unwashed trundling down our street in vehicles stuffed with empty wine bottles etc. are happily unfounded.

If you recall I posted back in January that I had discussed our concerns with Terry Smith and he promised to look into this on our behalf. Well according to the plans that Pamela dropped off around my house, the guy has done us proud, so if you meet him in the pub, we owe him a drink or six.
