UPDATED: Council leaders plan changes to household waste and recycling strategy

• Council leaders plan changes to household waste and recycling strategy

   

  Based on the findings of recent consultation and some of the challenges facing the current service, the key recommendations for the new Waste Management Strategy include:

  • Household waste collected fortnightly using the 180 litre wheeled bin (no change here)
  • Two larger capacity recycling bins (on wheels) collected fortnightly to replace existing 55-litre boxes
  • Food collections weekly using existing small food bin (no change here)
  • People will be supported with special arrangements if their housing circumstances makes it more difficult to accommodate larger bins
    
    

  A chargeable garden waste collection service to be provided over 40 weeks of the year, covering the ‘growing season’ between March and November. The garden waste collections to continue fortnightly, in line with the frequency of the proposed kerbside collection service.  There would be a charge of £40 per year per container for garden waste collections - this equates to £2 per collection and is evidently in line with the current additional capacity charge.

  The new service would be in place for a minimum of three years. During this time, the Council would continue to look at ways it could continue to work with residents to reduce the amount of waste that we all produce and increase levels of reuse and recycling.

  Cheshire West and Chester Council’s Cabinet is set to decide on these changes during their meeting on Wednesday 9 June. Cabinet members will discuss the proposed Waste Management Strategy, which will shape how the Council delivers waste services over the next 10 years.

NEW: Council advise all Northwich and Winsford residents to get PCR test for COVID-19!

• Council advise all Northwich and Winsford residents to get PCR test for COVID-19!

   

  3 June 2021:

  Every resident in Northwich and Winsford is today advised to book a PCR test whether they have COVID-19 symptoms or not. In the past seven days, the Council's Public Health team has noticed a large increase in the number of cases of COVID-19 in these mid-cheshire towns.

  The testing data is showing that these cases are more likely to belong to the new Delta Variant B.1.671.2, formerly known as the variant from India. This variant is more transmissible than previous variants and cases are rising in other areas of the North West.

  To book a test you should visit https://www.gov.uk/get-coronavirus-test and select 'My local council or health protection team has asked me to get a test, even though I do not have symptoms' or call 119.

  A mobile PCR testing unit is currently based in Cumberland Car Park, Leicester Street, Northwich. This is for pre-booked appointments, 12-8pm. Another PCR local testing centre is located at the Old Depot, Leicester Street in Northwich. This provides PCR tests daily from 8am-8pm. The Centre is open to people wishing to walk up without an appointment, in addition to pre-booked appointments.

  There is also a PCR Testing Centre in Winsford at Queensway. This provides PCR tests daily from 8am-8pm. The Centre is open to people wishing to walk up without an appointment, in addition to pre-booked appointments.

  There is a no symptoms testing site at the Dingle Centre, Winsford, currently open 9am to 7pm Monday to Friday, and from 9am to 1pm on Saturdays. You can get tested on site and/or pick up home testing kits.

  A roving vaccination clinic will be at the Northwich Memorial Car Park on Monday 7 June from 10am - 4pm. The vehicle will be in the coach park area as you enter the car park. The vehicle will have the capacity to administer 144 vaccines. Importantly, these will be Astra Zeneca so can only be administered to those aged 40 and over. This is a 'drop-in' service with no need for an appointment.
