    The common is a defining part of the Burbage and Hinckley area, used by many on a daily basis as an escape from the noise of the busy surrounding towns and villages. It houses precious wildlife and... Read more

    The proposed rail terminal should be refused because: 1. Local roads cannot handle the large amount of extra traffic, both trucks and (commuter) cars. There has been a lot of warehouse development... Read more

  • Keith Ford

    This proposal is unnecessary as there are already similar facilities locally, Magna Park, DIRFT & Kegworth for example. There is also recently opened the huge DPD distribution centre on the A5,... Read more

    Impact on local roads and communities by increased traffic volumes

  • Lisa brankin

    I am in favour of the proposal. I think it will help with the growth and maintenance of local businesses. I am in favour of the M69 slip road changes as this will open opportunities for the area.

    The proposed location for HNRFI is in an area that is already saturated with rail and road freight locations. DIRFT (Daventry) is very close and so is the enormous new site at East Midlands Airport.... Read more

    A totally unnecessary development that will devastate an area of local beauty and bring a significant increase in traffic both heavy and domestic to the local area.

    Burbage Common is an important environmental asset for the surrounding community. Going ahead with this plan would destroy it both from a social point of view, but also from an environmental... Read more

  • Rebecca Roper

    My major concerns are as follows: • The immediate and overbearing proximity to both Elmesthorpe residents and the bordering SSSI, would suggest that the site chosen is not suitable for such a proposal... Read more

  • Rich Hayne

    Do we have to have it because it’s government policy? No - Government policy is to build a national network of strategic rail freight interchanges (SRFls) BUT the regulations stipulate that they... Read more
