You have to be in an enclosed vehicle. (There's probably a very good H&S/public liability reason for this.) Furthermore, certain vehicles are banned (no commercial waste), some require an extra permit, and all require proof of residence of the driver before entry is granted. So I suspect many other local authorities have similar arrangements.<div><br></div><div>They are one of those features that are not only impossible to armchair map in any detail but actually require a resident to drive through the facility.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div><i>Paul</i></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, 20 Mar 2021 at 19:49, Jez Nicholson <<a href="mailto:jez.nicholson@gmail.com">jez.nicholson@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">Interesting.....I've been trying to use this concept of '...in the United Kingdom' pages to document how it happens here and why it might be different.
