I’m very disappointed to see project progressing. We already have a very large rail freight very close to this site which isn’t even fully utilised, so this is really not needed so close by. We bought our first house in the area just 4 years ago as we loved how close to the countryside it was and had some lovely accessible walks. If this goes ahead it will complete destroy all of this as well as the habitat for so many animals. On top of this, the villages nearby could not cope with the additional traffic it will cause. If the motorway has an accident causing the traffic to move into the villages, it was cause absolute chaos. Most of the villages are very windy with many parked cars so would not be easy to navigate with large lorries. Please reconsider this awful greedy plan and for once side with nature and community
