Do we really need all of these warehouses in the local area - we already have Magna Park being expanded alongside other warehouses along the A5. Do we really need all of this "stuff" - what is being stored? We cannot cope with any more lorries and traffic around the local area. Roads are already extremely congested around Hinckley, which creates fumes and affects the health of us and our children. Unemployment is very low in this area and we do not need this volume/type of employment here. This will be a loss of agricultural land that we need to grow food. This will also have a devastating impact on local wildlife & Burbage Common and creating noise when people are trying to relax on the Common to aid their mental health.
