flag Dudley Council seeks permanent waste facility after closing Anchor Lane site, leaving residents with limited disposal access.

flag Dudley Council is seeking a permanent household waste facility in the north of the borough after closing the Anchor Lane site in 2021, following a dispute over fee increases. flag Temporary pop-up sites now serve areas like Sedgley, Coseley, and Gornal, but residents face only 12 disposal days annually—less than those with permanent access elsewhere. flag Dudley MP Sonia Kumar criticized the limited access, blaming the council's past decisions. flag Council leader Cllr Patrick Harley defended the temporary setup, noting public approval and continued access to Stourbridge facilities, while confirming active efforts to secure a long-term solution, including a local site or new regional agreement.
