I’ve been pushing the developer Matthew Homes and the city and county council to come up with a solution to refuse collection problems in Millstone Way, Earls Park.

With the installation of new lockable bollards, refuse crews can access Millstone Way from Manu Marble Way, to collect refuse and recycling. I’ve also arranged for the blocks of flats at 33 and 46 Millstone Way to get recycling boxes etc.

I hope the new system will be operational soon, now that it has had the final sign-off from the council.

Any residents of Earls Park or wider Podsmead who have issues with their refuse and recycling collection can email me on seb4podsmead@gmail.com.
