The Parish Council is concerned about the new traffic calming scheme in Godstone Road.  Please report any incidents to the Parish Clerk.  We will be helping to monitor the scheme by keeping a record of accidents and near misses.

Making recycling easier

From 1 October 2012 Tandridge District Council will introduce an improved recycling service, including:

• Weekly food waste collections, from an animal proof container at the front boundary of your property. Food waste is recycled into fertiliser.
• Alternate week collections of mixed recycling (including aerosols, foil, tetra-paks and most plastics, as well as paper, cardboard, cans and glass) from a new wheeled bin at the front boundary of your property. This provides a convenient way of recycling more from your home and reduces the amount of waste going to landfill.

Any remaining waste will be collected on alternate weeks from the rear of your property and will be taken to a landfill site.

Details of the new service will be sent to residents over the coming months, so you know what to expect and how to use the new service.
