Supporting the campaign should not compromise any safety concerns you may have, and Cambridgeshire Highways will cut junctions should there be a safety requirement to do so.

A Message from South Cambridgeshire District Council:
Catch up green bin collections – Saturday 19 and 26 February
We wanted to write to you with an update on green bin collections, to let you know that we will return over the next two Saturdays to collect green bins that were not emptied during weeks commencing 7 and 14 February (resulting from staff shortages).
If all the green bins in your street were not emptied during the weeks of 7 and 14 February, please put it out for collection on Saturday 19 February and Saturday 26 February. Please put the green bin out on both Saturdays, until it is emptied.
For residents that had a missed green bin where the rest of the street was emptied, we will not be returning to these individual properties as we are still not returning for any individual missed green bins.
For more information, go to www.scambs.gov.uk/bins
