The proposed move of the Waste Centre closer to residential housing in the Damson Parkway area needs to be totally reassessed on the grounds of dilution of the quality of the environment and unwarranted use of Green belt land.
Greater effort needs to be expended in identifying a suitable existing Brownfield site, away from a centre of population.
Alternatively, expansion of the current Bickenhill site, which meets existing traffic infrastructure dynamics, should be properly examined.

The proposed move of the Bickenhill Waste Centre closer to the recently built JLR Logistics Centre will undoubtedly add more vehicles to the already excessively high traffic volume A45 and surrounding roads.
It is totally unacceptable to consider moving a Waste Management function closer to the large residential area of Damsonwood and Damson Parkway.
It is yet another planned infringement on existing precious Green Belt land where the Council has already demonstrated its lack of care in its stewardship of local Green Belt land by permitting the hideous development of the JLR Logistics Centre at the Damson Parkway site.
