Recycling centres still closed

Last week the council issued this statement.

“Westmeath County Council wishes to advise the public that the Recycling Centres in Mullingar and Athlone are closing temporarily to facilitate the change of the Council’s operator on these sites.

"Westmeath County Council is endeavouring to minimise this period of closure and regrets any inconvenience caused. In the interim there are private facilities available in both towns for the provision of recycling facilities.”

Today, Wednesday December 7, the recycling centre in Mullingar is still closed.
