Save Lyne Recycling Centre


Save Lyne Recycling Centre
The Issue
Surrey County Council are considering the closure of the Recycling Centre in Lyne, Chertsey. This is a busy tip which serves Chertsey, Egham, Virginia Water & surrounding areas. Since charges for domestic DIY rubbish were introduced and then closure of the site 2 days a week there has been a marked increase in fly tipping in this area. Fly tipped rubbish is cleared up by Runnymede Borough Council at a cost to us the tax payer. Closure of the tip will result in more fly tipping as well as an increase of traffic as people journey to other recycling centres which already have long queues. We must fight for the centre to remain open to keep this important facility.
