Glasgow recycling depot hit by power cut 'falling apart', staff claim

Workers at a city recycling unit should be given temporary accommodation until a new depot can be built, Union bosses have argued, saying the existing centre is "falling apart".

Last week the Queenslie Depot in Polmadie was closed to all vehicles as a result of a power cut. The issue has since been resolved but staff have complained about holes in the roof letting in rain water, which regularly trips the electrics. There have also been concerns raised about toilets facilities and heating at the depot.

Glasgow City Council confirmed that power has been restored and said that the staff quarters remain “fit for purpose”.
