I have previously advised residents about the changes to bin collections and recycling arrangements covering much of the West End, now being rolled out. The area covered in the current roll-out (Phase 1) covers quite a convoluted boundary but is roughly speaking the area west of Peddie Street to the Invergowrie boundary, including Logie, but currently not including Pentland and Tullideph.
The council website has more details about the new arrangements. Delivery of detailed information to residents affected commences today (being delivered between now and 6th March) and the Director of Environment at the City Council has advised me of the following timetable for the phasing in of the new arrangements for Phase 1 (with the exception of a very small number of properties in Clayhills Drive and within the Ninewells Hospital grounds which were switched over last December) :
Any resident with queries can contact the Environment Department on 436289 or e-mail recycle@dundeecity.gov.uk.
I previously mentioned the concerns raised by residents in Blackness Road west of Ashbank Road (on the north side and east of Balgay Road) about how the new arrangements are proposed to affect them. I am pleased to note than an additional consultation meeting has been arranged by the Environment Department for these residents this week - 7pm on Wednesday (25th) at Blackness Library.
