Local Residents against Bridge Farm Quarry

Refuse planning to CEMEX and Farley Estates for the 10+ year plan to quarry in Arborfield.

Why is this important?

Here are the top 5 for starters:
a) Large increase in traffic
b) Local wildlife & land disruption
c) Infrastructure - local roads and underground pipes would be adversely affected by increase in HGVs
d) Borough has already enough Mineral Extraction to meet required levels
e) Air Pollution - in close proximity to Shinfield Junior School

The list of objections is long and the best place to start for more information is here:

The Facebook page for local residents is called:
Shinfield & Arborfield Residents Against Bridge Farm Quarry, this contains a wealth of information and contacts regarding the proposal.
