BOYLE SOLID WASTE

News release

The Alum Springs convenience center is undergoing construction for a new operator building. Tentative completion date is Friday, March 17. During this construction, only 30-yard open tops will be available for disposal. There will be no compactor boxes. Traffic congestion is expected.

During construction, the center will be open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday.

Due to this change in disposal options, the Boyle County Department of Solid Waste Management is asking the public to:

• Only come to the Alum Springs Center if it is absolutely necessary.

• If you do stop by the center, drive safely, be patient and listen to the operator’s instructions.

• If at all possible, go to another convenience center, such as Gose Pike or Mitchellsburg.
