Please wait until there is a planning application and you have the number of the pl.application to identify your objection.

TRDC has negotiated with the promoter (HS2 Ltd) for more clarity on the scheme and for positive commitments to improve the proposals for this area.

We are concerned that the scheme would severely affect the local area because of pollution and traffic, and the very large construction compounds to be sited near West Hyde/Maple Cross. These compounds are expected to be operational
