'GREEN' INITIATIVES PLANNED IN BRIGG


Brigg Town Council is planning some new 'green' initiatives to help the environment this year.
Funds have been allocated in the budget for the 2021/22 financial year to make these possible.
Provision of 'Shop Local' hessian bags is planned with the aim of making Brigg a 'plastic-free town'.
It is also planned to create a Water Refill Centre within the town centre where people will be able to top up their refreshment bottles. This will also help to tackle the use of plastic containers.
Healthy walks outdoors will be encouraged by 'finger posts' indicating various town walking routes.
Floral displays are planned to add a touch of colour to the town, with provision made for these blooms to be watered on a regular basis.
