Website disruption on Tuesday 28 and Wednesday 29 April

We're carrying out an essential server upgrade from 9pm on Tuesday 28 April, continuing into the morning of Wednesday 29 April. During this time, some parts of our website may not work as expected.

Please do not attempt to make payments through the website during this period, as these may fail or not be processed correctly. You may also experience issues when trying to check information (such as planning applications or bin dates), download documents or submit online forms.

We expect everything to be back up and running by midday on Wednesday 29 April.

We're sorry for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience while we carry out these improvements.
