Daventry is under-used as per report, freight moved down 9% lowest since records began, Freight Lifted down 17% as per October to December report 2022 compared to a year earlier, it's Obvious Daventry terminal is in Decline and by opening another In Hinckley will speed up the Decline while decimating the local countryside at a beautiful place full of wildlife, another major concern is the M69 Roundabout is always gridlocked and dangerous, the HGV traffic from this proposal will mainly come from Magna park area along single A5 carriageway and onto the roundabout to enter M69 before exiting onto freight terminal and make the roundabout more impossible than it is now? This is one of the most silly proposals i have ever heard? and will turn Hinckley into a no-go area.
