NEW BRIGG CAR PARK LITTER BINS PLANNED

Brigg Town Council members will be asked to agree the provision of replacement litter bins within the Old Courts Road car park during their next meeting on Thursday evening (July 16).
This issue was raised briefly at the June meeting and it was agreed to defer things for further consideration.
The Old Courts Road car park bins are some of the first things visitors and shoppers pass after leaving their vehicles and heading towards the town centre, and also when making return journeys.
The Town Council is currently revising the provision of litter bins across the town - providing larger ones at key locations and re-purposing some bins to other sites.
The aim is to reduce the amount of litter on pavements, green spaces and the riverside.
However, much depends on the individual. Sadly, some people seem unwilling to use bins even if they are close by!
Thursday night's council meeting is also expected to receive an update about the relocation of allotments from Grammar School Road (not far from the M180 flyover) to a new site to be created on part of Woodbine Park, near South View Avenue.
These plots will be managed by the Town Council, which currently operates sites on Redcombe Lane/Atherton Way and Grammar School Road. Tenants keen to grow their own fruit and veg pay an annual rental fee.
Green-fingered residents wanting to know more or inquire about plots should contact the council - enquiries@briggmarkettown.co.uk
