  • Comment on Recycle for Bradford by sarah morrison
    i can not understand why people who are doing community service are not sorting through the household waste recycled what has been unnecessarily tipped! Also why are Bradford not starting a fining scheme we do alot of recycling but have freinds and family members who boast of having two bins and filing them and that they can not be bothered recyling!!! Everyone in society seems so preoccupied with their rights, yet nobody seems to have told them they also have responisiblities to their community!

  • Comment on Wind-farm reenergized by recycling by Andy Mcdonald
    Hi there-yep, its good to see the big UK energy companies finally getting behind wind and other forms of clean energy. Scotland in particular has enormous wind potential, hopefully more of our companies will begin to capitalise on this new found enthusiasm ie: http://www.hydro.co.uk. Maybe then we can begin to close the gap on the Scandanavians......
  • Comment on The computer recycling problem by Mike at Pacebutler Recycling
    In the US, there's a non-profit group called FreeGeek that operates like the Brant Freenet organization you mentioned here. They also provide computers to needy individuals and groups in exchange for community service. I have heard about a company in Belgium called Umicore that performs electronic recycling quite efficiently - with less than half of 1% remaining waste that couldn't be returned to the manufacturing cycle. Thanks for this article.
  • Comment on Circuit board recycling a reality by M. Gurian
    Very interesting as a brief note. Will be interested in the details. The key to sucessful recycling is not only to dis-asemble the pieces but to treat them into recoverable and valuable individual streams in a reasonably economic process. Getting metals distinguished into adequately pure streams of useful individual metals or alloys will be a difficult problem. Looking forward to find the detailed work, if there is ever sufficient disclosure to judge details of the process and end stream analysis. Also the restriction or makeup of the starting circuit products may make considerable difference in the ease and universality of the process.

    • Carpark sign, 8th February
      The sign is fitted too low, anyone over 6ft & over tall & not looking walking towards the newsagent from the zebra crossing could get a nasty cut on the forehead from the sharp corner of the sign.
    • Large pothole, 8th February
      Outside 151 Old Bath Road there is a large pothole. Needs fixing.
    • Large pothole, 8th February
      Larege pothole that looks at if it has claimed several wheels/tyres aready judging by the two car wheel trims lying nearby! Acroos the road from No3
    • Large pothole, 8th February
      Deep pothole roughly outside no14 Greenhills Road.
    • Deep potholes, 8th February
      There are deep potholes along Up Hatherley Way which are both deep and numerous, so much so that they cannot be avoided. The problem seems to be getting worse since the heavy snow.

      There is a large pothole on Benhall avenue near number 40 that is getting bigger. Please can it be fixed.

    • Potholing / Stripping of surface course, 7th February
      The surface course of the A38 through Cambridge has dipped way below intervention level. The present SMA surface course was laid directly on top of the previous Hor Rolled Asphalt and was an issue waiting to happen - with new surface unravelling and in areas coming off in strips.
    • Street light, 6th February
      Requires shade to one side.The light is just 6 feet from main bedroom window hence room never gets dark & have been forced to change rooms to get a good nights sleep.
    • Illegal Parking, 5th February
      I am concerned about cars parking illegally on pavements and right on the corner of Eynon Close and Moorend Crescent. It can be very difficult manoeuvering a car out of the close, visibility round the corner is difficult, it is often impossible to walk on the pavement due to parking, and on a number of occasions refuse trucks have been unable to even get into the close because of inappropriate parking. I would suggest double yellow lines on the corners, but I know they would simply be ignored, so I think a far more effective solution would be bollards on, and close to, the street corners.
    • Series of potholes, 5th February
      There are a number of potholes about 6-7 of them approx 2" deep in Lansdown Crescent travelling between Lansdown Place Lane and Lansdown Walk which run along a "join" in the tarmac
    • Flooding, 5th February
      The road regularly floods here, often covering both lanes. The field to the west is significantly lower and I hope the water could be made to drain down into the field. Some resurfacing would be required to lift the southbound lane, thus giving the required fall. Resurfacing in recent years has ignored the fact that there are low spots here where water collects.
    • 2 potholes, 5th February
      There are 2 potholes at the junction of St Georges Place and Clarence Street.
    • Large Series of Potholes, 5th February
      Just before the junction with Clarence Parade there are about a dozen large potholes in the road.
    • Gas Leak, 5th February
      There has been strong smell of gas in this area for about 5 years. The road has been dug up a few times but the problem never fixed. The smell seems worse since recent works.
