I would like to register that I am against this planning application on several grounds. 1) Air pollution. Not only are we having pollution from the actual incinerator but also from the extra transportation IE the 300 lorry's a day in and out of the plant. 2) Our infrastructure around Wisbech will not be able to cope with the huge increase of the volume of traffic that will be using our roads. Every other week we have issues around the weasenham lane area and this was surely increase with the prospect of 300 lorries a day a in addition to all the other traffic. We are having an additional 215 homes being proposed for my village Elm without the huge development which is under going planning application for along the Churchill road/ back of Morrisons. Our road infrastructure cannot cope now let alone with all the development plus 300 lorries a day. 3) My parents have worked so hard all their lives to finally be able to pay their mortgage off and own they own home out right. Obviously if this incinerator gets built then they will see they house value plummet and all their hard work will be in vain.
