REPAIR work on unloading bays at the Rosewood Recycling and Refuse Centre are expected to begin this week.
Mayor Teresa Harding said the unloading bays had been closed for the past five months after subsidence below the unloading bays was discovered.
“The Rosewood Recycling and Refuse Centre is more than 30-years-old and is set to be replaced with a new Western Resource and Recovery Centre to support the growing Rosewood-Thagoona-Walloon corridor,” she said.
“In the interim, council will work on restoring the unloading bays to allow local residents better access to refuse and recycling services.”
Cr Paul Tully added that the unloading bay upgrades were part of council’s commitment to improving waste collection for residents.
“Since the subsidence issue was discovered, temporary skip bins have been in place to allow local residents to continue to access recycling and waste services,” he said.
Works to restore the unloading bays will begin on November 23, and it is expected to continue until late December.
