Industrial action called off

We are happy to confirm that proposed strike action by Somerset waste collection crews has been called off.

This follows a positive response to a Unite ballot of its members on an improved pay offer from SUEZ recycling and recovery UK, the Council’s collections contractor.

Services should be operating as usual and residents can present their waste in the usual way.

We will be sharing this information through our various channels throughout the morning.

The crews make more than 350,000 collections each week. It is a difficult job and one that is highly valued by our residents.

We thank you for your patience in recent weeks.

Please be aware that we have received a notification of a TTRN (urgent / emergency) road closure at Stoke Road, North Curry & Stoke St. Gregory which will commence on 17th July 2023 – 19th July 2023 (00:00 – 23:59) for a total of 3 days.

This will enable Wessex Water to carry out work to repair a valve.

The contractor has indicated that access for Emergency Services through the site  is not permitted on this occasion.

For any further information about this closure please contact Wessex Water on 03456 004600, quoting reference: ttro336414W.

Please visit one.network  https://one.network/?tm=134876387 where you will see the map of the affected area (in red), together with the supplied diversion route (in blue).

Please note: this diversion route could be subject to change on review.

We can confirm that strike action by Somerset waste collection crews has been suspended for two weeks pending a union ballot.

Talks today between the Unite union and SUEZ Recycling and Recovery UK – the Council’s collections contractor – made progress and the union has agreed to ballot its membership on an improved pay offer.

The strike action that was planned to start on Wednesday (12 July) has been suspended pending the outcome of the ballot and all collections services should be running as normal.

Residents are asked to present their refuse, recycling and garden waste as usual.

There is a chance that tomorrow’s services may be compromised to some extent given the late notice of suspension of industrial action.

There is some way to go and a risk of industrial action remains, but the immediate widespread disruption to collections has been avoided.

The online garden waste form has been reinstated to take new subscriptions, renewals and requests for replacement garden waste bins.  We are also taking requests for container deliveries.

In the coming days, we will be working through reinstating bulk waste collections.

Please continue to use the www.somerset.gov.uk/strike website for the latest updates and advice.
