This project is being built close to our premises. Traffic is gridlocked frequently at the best of times. Having large amounts of additional traffic will cause further congestion for locals and businesses. Businesses like ourselves who visit domestic and business customers will see a significant impact with the amount of time employees are being paid to sit in traffic jams. This will have a knock on effect of prices increasing during a time where the cost of living is already causing a huge impact to business and families. Road conditions are poor also additional traffic will deteriorate the roads further leading to increase maintenance and repair bills for all road users. I don’t know anyone that would want to see a huge chimney in the skyline polluting the environment at a time when the environment should be put first. You will not be able to police the rubbish that is being burnt meaning you could be burning and putting anything into the atmosphere. How can you be sure there are no health issues. What long turm studies have been undertaken to ensure the health of all resident over the next 50years and beyond. Planning permission has been rejected in the local area for minor projects that would not have significant impact on the locals this huge project cannot be acceptable.
