KCC Says Expansion Of Celbridge Bin Collection Service To 7 Days Can Be Considered In 2022.

Monday, 31 May 2021 11:43

Councillor says its not quite that simple.

A councillor says KCC's response to his call for a 7 day bin collection service in Celbridge doesn't really address the issue.

Fianna Fáil Cllr., Michael Coleman, says provision of additional bins to combat littering is only one part of the answer - as the bins must also be emptied frequently

Kildare County Council says expansion of the bin collection service is a " matter for the members to agree when considering the 2022 budget"

Cllr. Coleman says it isn't quite that simple.

Cllr. Coleman joined Eoin Beatty on Monday's edition of Kildare Today, to discuss his motions before the May meeting of the Celbridge Leixlip Municipal District.
