Dumfries and Galloway Council has marked the start of construction on the Whitesands Flood Protection Project with a ground breaking ceremony at Greensands.
Councillors are to consider the findings of a detailed review of Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) across Dumfries and Galloway, looking at how the service can be adapted and potentially restructured to meet future needs.
Dumfries and Galloway Council has awarded the main works contract for the Whitesands Flood Protection and Public Realm Improvement Scheme in Dumfries to McLaughlin & Harvey.
Applications are now open for Dumfries and Galloway Council’s 2026 Garden Waste Collection Service. Sign up by 31 January to enjoy convenient fortnightly kerbside collections from March to November for just £40 per bin permit – helping you keep your garden tidy and reduce trips to the recycling centre.
