Binmen in a Hertfordshire city are going to be issued with snow shoes to help them to work in icy conditions. In a review of services, St Albans City and District Council's Cabinet will supply slip-on snow shoes to fit over safety boots. During heavy snowfalls last winter bin collections were cancelled, leaving city rubbish uncollected for a month. It's hoped the shoes will allow binmen to walk safely on snow, preventing disruption to services in bad weather. BBC |
