On October 6th 2023, the ExA notified me of a change request application from the developer with regard to a request for works to construct and operate the underground cable and associated development. This represents an extension of the order limits to the south of Torksey Ferry Road (adjacent to Cottam power station) and west along Torksey Ferry Road. This also includes land to the north of Torksey Ferry Road. This is an important access road to the river Trent and is used for recreation such as walking and horse riding. This will be another part of the development that encroaches on wildlife. The area is great for bird and wildlife watching with hedgerows, woodland and badger setts. This further highlights the Developers unprofessional approach to the planning process and regard to rural communities. This madness has to be stopped.
