Kibworth tip to close for ‘up to eight weeks’ for improvement works
The Market Harborough tip will open seven days a week
The Kibworth recycling and household waste site will temporarily close for improvement works, with the tip shut for up to two months.
Leicestershire County Council confirmed the Harborough Road site will close on Tuesday, November 24, for strengthening works on the waste bays.
The council said the closure is expected to last up to eight weeks. While the tip is out of action, the Market Harborough site will be open seven days a week from November 26.
It is expected to be closed for up to eight weeks. From Thursday 26 November, the Market Harborough site will be open seven days a week until Kibworth reopens.
The Melton site will be closed from Monday 30 November to Friday 4 December for resurfacing works to the lower yard.
Councillor Adam Tilbur said: “The strengthening works at Kibworth will make the waste bays more robust and better able to withstand the demands of daily use, while the resurfacing work at Melton will improve the condition of the site.
“We appreciate the temporary inconvenience these closures may cause and thank residents for their patience and understanding while these important improvements are carried out.”
