IT’S a first for Barnsley and it means your phone could tell you which bin is due to be emptied.
Barnsley Council has launched a new free web app, making access to services faster and more efficient for residents who use a mobile device to access the council website.
The council is the first authority in the UK to use a web app facility which turns the council website into an easy to use app.
It can be installed on the home screen of any android/iPhone device and gives quick access to popular forms and sections of the current website.
Users are able to get alerts to notify them of bin collection days, report issues and search for jobs.
