Nottinghamshire County Council's leader says the ambition is to replace the Kirkby and Mansfield tips with one site and to build a new West Bridgford tip
Nottinghamshire County Council 's leader has confirmed that major changes will be made to just three tips in the area after months of fears about many of them closing. Ben Bradley says that of the 12 tips in Nottinghamshire, just three will be replaced.
The confirmation comes after months of fears that as many as nine Nottinghamshire tips could have ended up closing. The authority first carried out an independent review of its recycling centres in 2022 and a group at the council then went through a series of scenarios for the future of Nottinghamshire's tips.
Yet speaking at a meeting on Thursday , Councillor Bradley went down the list of 12 Nottinghamshire tips and said nine of them would remain open. Describing the current Kirkby and Mansfield tips, the council leader said: "Neither of them are brilliant."
