The anaerobic digestion site must be within a radius of 16 miles or up to 1 hour drive time from Lister Road Depot (DY2 8JW) where the food waste fleet will be based. The restriction is due to the lack of transfer station facilities for the storage and bulking of the food waste within the Borough. Bids submitted outside of the radius / hour set will be excluded from further evaluation.
