I really am against this planned incenarator because 1) Air pollution. We live approx 2 and half miles away from the planned incenarator site. Not only smoke from the incenarator making the local area polluted but also the 300 plus lorries a day contributing to the poor air quality. 2) We do not have the correct infrastructure to deal with all the extra traffic on the roads. This is planned to be built near to the main secondary school which already gets heavily congested. Also in this area approx another 200 homes are going to be built and within 1 and half miles in Elm there already planning being applied for for another 215 homes . Our roads will not be able to cope with the extesive additional volume of traffic if the incerator goes ahead. 3) I have just finishing paying off my mortgage after 25 years and if this proposal goes ahead my house price will plummet. This means for the last 25 years of working hard and sacrificing a lot will be wasted as my house will lose a considerable amount plus will never be able to sell as who would want to move to an area with a massive incenarator just up the road
