HELENSBURGH'S Blackhill recycling centre reopened today (Tuesday) after an "incident on site" forced its temporary closure.
Argyll and Bute Council shared an announcement online on Monday, March 1, stating that the site was "closed until further notice" while staff dealt with the matter.
The local authority told the Advertiser on Monday afternoon that officials were "investigating an issue with a vehicle which means we will close it [the site] to public access for the remainder of the day".
