Purpose

To close each HWRC to allow new assets and
infrastructure to be installed at sites.
 
As part of the new HWRC contract, Rotherham
Council have purchased new assets (such as skips, ramps, plant
equipment) to be used by the contractor for the first three years
and then used by the Council going forward. Each site will be
required to close for one day to allow the current assets to be
removed and the new Council assets to be installed safely and
correctly. These closure dates will be after the start date of the
new contract when HW Martin have taken control of the sites. The
sites will be closed on different days to allow residents to retain
the use of the remaining three sites. The dates of the site
closures are below:
 
•         Warren
Vale, Rawmarsh – 30th October 2023
•         Magilla,
North Anston – 1st November 2023
•         Car
Hill, Greasbrough – 2nd November 2023
•         Lidget
Lane, Bramley – 3rd November 2023
 
There are no other viable alternatives
available to allow the exchange of assets for the new contract.
