The Rail freight interchange planned in this area will bring intolerable disruption to my daily living with the increase in rail freight passing my home literally at the bottom of the garden. Our home life has already been blighted by a distribution centre on the other side of the rail line. This coupled with the lack of road infrastructure in the area and the knock on burden of a further significant increased n traffic is not warranted. The additional low paid low skilled jobs that will be created are not needed in this area where companies are struggling to fill roles and the eyesore it will cause and environmental destruction of the area are unacceptable. There are other rail freight exchanges that could be expanded nearby that would not cause the negative impact on people, the environment and wildlife that would be more sensible and economic to consider
