Oppose planned strategic rail freight interchange in rural Northamptonshire

Decline planning permission for a massive strategic rail freight interchange inbetween Blisworth and Milton Malsor.

Why is this important?

The Developer Ashfield Land Ltd has categorised this development as a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project. The implication of this is that it by-passes the normal Northamptonshire planning application process and is determined directly by the Secretary of State who quite possibly has no knowledge of our local environment and might not even visit the affected villages before making his decision. Whilst South Northamptonshire Council are fundamentally against this development as it is contrary to their local plan, their power to reject it has effectively been taken away from them.
