The response from the Council that they are relying on the regulations is very worrying. Firstly, are they suggesting that France does not have similar regulations? Secondly, are they ignoring the fact that Eurovia are reported to be guilty of gross negligence? It doesn’t matter what the regulations are if they are not being followed. Thirdly, just because something is legal doesn’t make it safe. It used… Read more »

Well done Julia Hill and WRAP for bringing this information to our attention. Even Cllr Pugh can’t call this factual report from the French Appeal Court ‘Scaremongering’ (can he?) If Eurovia/Vinci can show utter contempt for one of their own workers and have only compensated his widow after four years following an Appeal Court finding against them what chance do our local communities have on the Isle… Read more »

If the Council go ahead with this application, ignoring all the hard evidence that says the plant is a danger to the surrounding houses and the environment, Julia Hill and WRAP should position themselves for a Judicial Review and mount a legal challenge. Given the density and physical area involved I am sure we can raise enough funds to ensure we meet all the legal requirements in… Read more »

My thanks also goes to Julia Hill and the other WRAP campaigners for all of your continued investigative research and efforts, in highlighting all the issues and concerns with the Eurovia Asphalt plant site planning application. I give my overall support to the words above by James Luke , ‘Downwind Residents’ and ‘Black Dog’ Myself and all Islanders want to see improved Highways and a successful PFI… Read more »

I keep asking myself – “Would I buy a secondhand car, or, for that matter, asphalt from Eurovia?”

On the whole, and after careful reflection of life’s experiences, I think I would source elsewhere.

I wonder if anyone in County Hall is of a similar mindset?

Are you presupposing that any of that unholy crew have a mind for anything other than their own wellbeing?

Cllr.Gorge Brown; “Emissions are controlled very strictly and specifically by legislation. This is a very important aspect of the planning application which is before the local authority. This is a very important aspect of the planning application which is before the local authority and can give every assurance it will be dealt with the greatest care and greatest attention.”’ Strange, given that, initially when filing the planning… Read more »

Cllr. Brown may need to reconsider his alleged statement. He cannot rely on the data submitted by the applicant because it is only based on theoretical figures not hard facts from empirical measurements. In fact recent objections indicate misleading acoustic data submissions so what else? Ergo,if he relies on false data to determine the Permit and/or Planning applications he will not have exercised due care. Should an… Read more »

The data that I have seen in the planning application has all been theoretical. The noise data is not taken from a real Asphalt Plant – it is some form of design specification that is far better than any existing plant. The emmissions data is all theoretical. Apparently data isn’t available for their existing plants. Existing Air Quality data is not available as the Council don’t monitor… Read more »
