Online access to council services to be disrupted

ACCESS to council services via the website will be unavailable over the weekend as work to relocate the Computer Centre continues.

All online services will be unavailable for the duration of the weekend (Friday, 29 January to Sunday, 31 January) including the entire council website and Berneslai Homes' website, and there will also be no ability to pay for council services online or through the telephone. However, general contact to council services through the telephone will remain unaffected.

Work will begin late this evening and last until late Sunday night. Normal service will have resumed by the time the council opens for business on Monday morning.

The creation of brand new data centre facilities at Beevor Court continues to provide a base for Bull TCL, the council’s strategic ICT partner.

As a result of this major move, the council will have access to a state of the art IT infrastructure that will result in improved accessibility of systems, a reduction in the amount of time when systems are unavailable and also a reduction in the environmental impact of operating our IT systems.
