Dumfries and Galloway Council Launches Webpage for Planned Strike Action
Dumfries and Galloway Council has introduced a dedicated webpage to keep residents informed about the impact of the planned industrial action on waste services. The strike is scheduled to take place from August 15 to August 22, 2024, and is expected to cause significant disruptions to both household and commercial waste collections in the region.
The newly created webpage serves as a centralised source of information regarding the planned strike action, which is set to disrupt both household and commercial waste collections. The council has established this resource to ensure that residents are aware of potential delays and changes to their usual waste collection schedules.
The webpage provides detailed information on the following:
- Strike Dates: Specific dates when the industrial action will take place and how they might affect waste collection services.
- Collection Schedule Changes: Updates on any alterations to the regular waste collection schedules, including possible delays.
- Alternative Waste Disposal: Information on alternative methods for disposing of waste, including nearby recycling centres that will remain operational.
- Council Updates: Regular updates from the council about ongoing negotiations and the impact on waste management services.
How to Access
Residents can access the webpage through the Dumfries and Galloway Council’s official website. The page is designed to be user-friendly and is updated regularly to reflect the latest information on the strike action and its implications for waste services.
