Asbestos Found at Idlewells Market, Council Acts

0:00On March 6th, Ashfield District Council has discovered asbestos in five stalls in an office at Idlewell's Market in Sutton in Ashfield. The material turned up during standard inspections and specialist confirm it poses no risk to public health right now. Council leaders emphasize they've been closely watching air quality with ongoing tests to make sure everything stays contained. Removal crews plan to start the job in the coming weeks, working overnight when the market is shut to traders and shoppers. That approach keeps the site fully open during the day with as little hassle as possible wiping out any potential concerns for good.
