Lincoln Transportation and Utilities (LTU) Director Elizabeth Elliott today announced the closure of two recycling collection sites in Lincoln and plans to close two more in July. In June, the City announced plans to transition from 19 neighborhood sites to four or five main collection sites in order to save an estimated $2 million per year. Surveillance cameras will monitor for illegal dumping.
