I have written previously about the impending closure for redevelopment of our nearest Recycling and Household Waste site, the Kibworth Tip.  I have now had confirmation that it is to close on Monday 1 November and remain closed for up to 12 months. The improvements will provide more bays and will make the site easier to use. A planned split-level surface meaning that customers no longer have to climb steps to access the skips. They will also improve traffic flow. HGVs at the site will be separated from the area used by the public to further improve safety. Residents are asked to use either of the centres on Wigston Road, Oadby, and Riverside, Market Harborough while the work is completed.
