There are long tailbacks as people visit recycling centres for the first time since the lockdown began.

A long queue has developed on the westbound A71 at the Oakbank roundabout, as residents visit the newly reopened recycling centre nearby. Some drivers started queuing as early as 7:30am this morning to get to recycle their waste.

Once allocated a parking bay, visitors have to stay within it and use the skips provided. They also have to stay two metres away from other visitors and staff.
