In my travels today I’ve seen only one trash truck west of the south roundabout .
The timing couldn’t have been better , whatever the reason . No-one has touched their trash since last week .It’s still all sitting out there and the wind is howling , blowing it everywhere .

Can someone please give us a reason for this and tell us what’s going on ?

No trash was collected yesterday.

So what’s the plan now? So far they haven’t bothered to tell us.

I guess keeping basic services running is beyond the capabilities of this government.

Tues, Jan 30… Areas mentioned in west end still have not had garbage pickup. So much for “The normal waste collection schedule will resume next week with the west end being serviced on Monday and Thursday” comment from the ministry!!!!!!

We need an explanation for goodness sake!!! “We are not doing our jobs in the East End this week. Please take care of your trash yourself” And no reason given. I smell a rat!

It’s amazing the called for transparency. We hear NOTHING about buses and now no reason for not picking upntrash. Well done voters.

Just as long as they get their pay rise, 70 days sick leave, six weeks vacation.

I want my tax dollars back. I gave up on them years ago I take my trash to Tynes Bay myself.

Cannot keep the brand new trash trucks running either…first buses then trash trucks…..inept effort …innept over see….what else is wrong?
My guess is …ferries next.
Transport is obviously plps’weakness….sorry u lot…but it is time you stepped to the wicket.

The reason why would be nice. There was no collection Tuesday either.

Didn’t Foggo just have a meeting with the BPSU on improving efficiency in Government?

As a start, they might consider doing their freaking jobs. No busses, no trash collection, schools run down, parks over grown with weeds.
