I am concerned that there will be an unacceptable huge increase in road traffic and subsequent pollution. I am concerned at the noise that will disturb me and my sleep. Also it will affect children studying in schools. It was bad before and the huge increase in movements proposed will be very disruptive to myself, others and particularly children.

I am concerned at the apparent absence of due diligence. It appears from my research that the previous track record of the main RSB board member raises concerns. Also there appears to be secrecy regarding the investors in Belize.

I do not think there is a need for a freight hub at Manston. I have studied forecast reports. I do not believe the claims for the new job numbers that are stated.
