Seminar objectives
This seminar is an ideal opportunity for officers,
managers, elected members and trade unions
interested in the delivery of long term solutions for
street scene, waste and transport services.
The meeting will provide insights into how other
local authorities are achieving high quality outcomes
in managing their local environments, waste arising
and vehicle fleets. Issues such as performance
management, innovative partnerships, behavioural
change and transport innovations will be featured.
Environmental services are facing multiple
challenges in the current climate of austerity. This
forum hopes to offer help and advice to meeting
these challenges.
