NEWS FLASH - Yate Recycling Centre closed until further notice
South Glos Council has announced that the SITA Recycling Centre at Collett Road will be closed until further notice.
No details have been given but we imagine it's connected to a Post report of a major rubbish fire in nearby Dean Road early this morning.
Update from SITA 23/09/2012: "We’re pleased to advise that the Yate recycling centre in South Glos will be open on Mon 24 Sep (8am - 6.30pm). Normal service resumed"

Latest on bin collections
As blogged here, SITA went back to using the standard collection calendar on Monday 25th January and as of Saturday 6th they have now completed a full two week cycle on black bins, green bins and green boxes. Because some householders may not have placed their bin out on the timetabled day, due to all the disruptions, SITA crews will continue to collect side waste for the next two week cycle.
The Council is aiming to learn from this experience and has reviewed its plans for coping with difficult situations such as the one faced in January. In future, they hope to keep residents better informed during disruptions.

Important news on bin collections
From Monday 25 January ALL collections (including black and green wheeled bins and green box recycling) will revert to the normal published days.
If all the confusion caused by Christmas and the bad weather has left you wondering which week you're on, you can check your collection dates online. Where collections have been delayed, SITA will collect reasonable amounts of side waste.
For this week (18 January - 22 January), green bin collections are still suspended and SITA is running approximately one week late on black bin and recycling collections. The advice for this week is still to put your containers out as per the holiday calendar and SITA will get to them as soon as they can.

SITA propose new composting plant near Westerleigh
South Gloucestershire Council's Waste contractors, SITA, are planning to build an In-Vessel Composting Facility in the green belt, near the M4 motorway. The access would be down Batchfield Lane, opposite the Crematorium.
Claire Young attended a briefing on the plans last week. The facility would be able to take up to 30 000 tonnes of food, cardboard and garden waste a year.
Collection vehicles would bring waste to the site between 7am and 5pm and 40T articulated lorries would take the compost away. Vehicle movements are expected to be in the region of 24-30 a day. Claire drew SITA's attention to the recent decision to implement the Westerleigh village weight limit, meaning that waste could not travel through Westerleigh itself.
Claire also asked SITA to consult with the public. They have promised to hold a drop-in session for local residents to see and discuss the plans.
