This is not a viable project with regard to the infrastructure of the surrounding area, the road system is already ridiculously busy at the moment and there is no possibility for improvement to cater for the estimated lorries that we are told is going to be using the site, their insistence that the traffic from the site will not use the local roads is unrealistic. Also we have very little public green space in the area, this development encroaches right to the edge of this precious area, and uses some of it for a link road, I also understand that there are other hubs within a reasonable distance, reducing the need for this intrusive development.
