Point 1. We consider that the investigative reports into traffic flows in Wisbech, and on main roads towards Wisbech, are significantly flawed. Gridlock in the areas approaching the proposed incinerator site is inevitable. Point 2. The proposed incinerator site adjoins the rail line into Wisbech centre. MVV are intending to run a large steam supply pipe from their proposed property, alongside the rail line to supply energy to local factories. Based on the drawings seen, there is insufficient space for both. Point 3. If the bulk of the waste for incineration were brought in by rail, the effect on the local road infrastructure would be significantly reduced. Please note, this note does not indicate any support for the proposal from our organisation.
