I object to the site MP2S MILL HILL NR BARTON IN FABIS on the grounds of Noise, Dust and impact on Local wildlife, Fauna and recreation
I am objecting to the Sand and Gravel Provision 'MP2S MILL HILL NR BARTON IN FABIS'. This area is in close proximity to the Attenborough Nature reserve and will adversely impact that area and the diverse habitiat it needs. The proposed site is also close to other SSI sites and will impact those too. As an asthma and local resident suffer I am concerned about the affect increased dust would have on my health. The traffic from the site would also impact the current safe cycle route out of Nottingham (Green Street). Given the proposed housing developments nearby this site will impact many others in the near future too.
The site operating times of 11 hours a day and 6 days a week would be intrusive in the extreme especially as the local area is used for recreation.
