Litter bins

The litter bin on Brabazon Road by the bus stop opposite Cartwright Drive has been emptied after I reported to the council that it was full.

I have also just reported several full bins along Ash Tree Road and Briar Walk so hopefully they will be emptied shortly.

If you see a full / overflowing bin please either contact me or Oadby and Wigston Borough Council directly.

Cllr. Ian Ridley.
