A refurbished waste recycling centre in Darlington will be reopened tomorrow.

The Whessoe Road tip, run by Premier Waste Management, was closed for two months while a £750,000 Government-funded redevelopment took place.

Stephen Harker, Darlington Borough Council's cabinet member for consumer and environmental services, will perform the ceremony.

The site has doubled and there are now many facilities for recycling green waste, timber, cardboard, metals, bric-a-brac, gas bottles, glass, paper, tyres, soil and rubble. The tip is open from 8.30am to 3.30pm.
