We've just put the first of our new fleet of refuse vehicles on the road.
The 12-refuse collection include 8, 22 and 26-tonne vehicles which are fitted with lower emission Euro-6 engines, and electric bin lifts which reduce noise levels for operatives and residents.
The new vehicles are the first of a 56-vehicle replacement programme which includes kerbside recycling vehicles, sweepers for street cleansing and vans, all of which are more eco-friendly, quieter and more efficient.
