Two young people walked up through the berry fields towards Wellington Woods about 8.45 today 8th Sept with a guncase.
Their car was parked on the North Lane – Vitara VA67 JWF
Apologies for the delay in replying to you. Thank you for reporting this – I will pass it on.
Good afternoon,
I live in Wellington and would like to raise the question as to whether it is possible to increase the number of bins/dog waste bins around Wellington and Auberrow?
As a conscientious dog owner, the number of bins are very limited, and if there were more bins I think other less conscientious owners may be encouraged to pick up the waste if it was easier to dispose of. I have often had to carry it for several miles as if our route doesn’t pass one of the bins on Wellington High Street, & I believe this could be deterring people.
The only bins I’m aware of are all on Wellington High Street (by the school, the shop and the bus stop). Suggested locations for new bins would be: Auberrow (anywhere appropriate); the end of the footpath that continues from Bridge Lane; on The Row .
Would welcome your thoughts.
Apologies for the delay in getting back to you. The issue with additional dog bins is that they need to be on a commercial collection route and as far as I know the areas you mention are not. However, I will send this through to the Councillors for their attention and they will get back to you.
Driving along the main road through Wellington towards Mill Lane, I noticed the sign posts pointing towards Canon Pyon and Westhope had been switched around.
I don’t know if this is still the case, but if it is, perhaps this could be remedied?
