Rubbish collections in Twerton

We are receiving reports that many people in Twerton have put out their rubbish and recycling today expecting it to be collected.

The council in their wisdom decided that it would be good to confuse everybody and have moved the collection day to Tuesday 2nd of January.

If your rubbish has not been collected today and you live in the Twerton Whiteway area please take it back in and put it back out for Tuesday 2nd January.

The council did however publish Christmas and New Year collections on their website http://www.bathnes.gov.uk/services/bins-rubbish-and-recycling/recycling-and-rubbish-collections/bank-holiday-collections

Christmas and New year waste collections

Waste collections over the Christmas break: 

As we are now all in the fortnightly waste collections there may be confusion over when your waste will next be collected.

To make it easy for residents the council has published information on rubbish collections in your area over the Christmas break.

To find out when your waste is next due for collection you can put your postcode into the Council's local services portal: https://isharemaps.bathnes.gov.uk/atmycouncil.aspx”

Bus Route changes - Update

Following the recent consultation by FirstBus, we have received confirmation that they will be making a couple of alterations to the original proposal.

They have agreed that Whiteway Circle will need to be included within the altered route.  They are also looking at the concerns raised about the bus pulling out onto Pennyquick, but are confident that this can be resolved.

The proposed route then needs to be submitted to the traffic commissioner and Firstbus have to give 56 days notice, therefore, with these additional alterations, they will not be in a position to submit an amended route in time for implementation in mid January.  The new route is looking like it will be in place towards the end of February.
