Calverton residents say housing development issues 'getting worse' after bins were left unemptied

People living on a Calverton street where dozens of new homes are being built say that issues are being caused by the development and that they are "getting worse." Some of the residents living off Flatts Lane were reportedly unable to get their bins emptied for three weeks, whilst other residents have raised safety concerns.

A total of 84 homes will eventually be built off Flatts Lane, with much of the development having already been completed. But as work continues, some of those living there say problems include being able to walk down the street due to the abundance of traffic and cars parked along the pavement.

Residents of Williams Drive, which is situated just off Flatts Lane, reported online that they had not had their bins emptied for three weeks due to bin lorries being blocked from getting in. When Nottinghamshire Live visited the area on Thursday, January 12, some of the bins were overflowing until bin lorries arrived moments later.
