Update on the road sweep – job not finished yet

Posted on: November 13th, 2012 by George Eykyn

Our contractors Bicester Sweepers spent a long day on Monday sweeping a large amount of leaves from many of the roads in the estate.

They brought two 4-tonne capacity sweepers, which were each filled twice (dumping and then returning). The wet weather did not help, as it added to the bulk of the leaves and made it more difficult to sweep.

Work was suspended for the day at nightfall. And still there are more leaves to collect!

Please note that the following roads have not yet been swept: Sandy Rise, Lewis Lane and the lower part of Chiltern Hill.

Bob Burge from the Roads Committee has called Bicester Sweepers to make a further booking to finish the work, and we await a date for the job to be completed. Residents will be advised once we have the exact date.

Estate roads to be swept of leaves

Posted on: November 9th, 2012 by George Eykyn

The Estate’s roads will be swept of leaves on the morning of Monday 12th November.

Residents are asked not to leave cars parked in the road that morning.

The verges will not be cleaned of leaves — but everything on the road surface that morning will be hoovered up.

Residents of Woodside Hill in particular have a large amount of leaves on their verges, and may want to ensure at least some of this leaf-fall is in a position to be swept away by the contractors.
