Salt Bin for Shipwrights

After significant resident interest we can confirm that we will be placing an additional Salt Bin on Shipwrights

Residents have been lobbying for additional salt bins via the Shipwrights Residents Association who we partner with closely.

The salt bin should be delivered before the end of April.

Salt Bins


One of the most contentious issues in the winter of 2009/10 and 10/11 was the number of salt bins in the ward and whether they were stock filled.

Luckily this year we have not had the same level of snow and ice as in previous years but as ward Councillor's we are expected to be responsible for ensuring all our bins are replenished and where requested new bins be placed.

In late October, the ward team surveyed every bin, after we were sent maps, to ensure that stocks were high and most importantly where identified new bins were placed.

Some examples below from Wayfield.

We have also moved a salt bin after request in Lawn Close in Luton and have replaced grit in several other roads including Mill Lane.
