A list of roads where bin collections are affected after lorries were vandalised have been revealed. 

East Suffolk Council warned some residents living in the south of the district, particularly in Felixstowe, that their bin collections may be delayed as a result of the damage.

This has meant that garden waste collections may be delayed until the vehicles are back in use. 

The council said the roads affected should have had their garden waste collected on Monday but will now be collected on Tuesday.

A full list of the roads in Felixstowe that have been affected can be found below:

  • Carol Close
  • Looe Road 
  • Prestwick Avenue 
  • Sunningdale Drive

A spokesman for East Suffolk Council said: "A number of waste collection vehicles used by East Suffolk Services were vandalised at our Ufford depot over the weekend, and require repair before they can return to duty.

"This will impact collections in the south of the district, therefore waste and recycling rounds will be prioritised ahead of garden waste for the time being.

"Any residents expecting a garden waste collection this week should still present their bins as normal and our teams will get to them as quickly as they can.

"We would like to apologise for any inconvenience this may cause."
