Petition Action

Stop proposed logistics development at "Haydock Point" at J23 M6

Petition Details

Peel Holdings are proposing to build a huge logistics facility near J23 M6

This will add further terrible congestion locally to an already unsustainable traffic issue locally & on A580/M6 J23

Additional Information

Whilst the plan is to create 2500 jobs, this will create further travel chaos at an already oversubscribed A580/A49 and J24. Peel are saying they will "not allow the traffic to get any worse"

Not withstanding many of us locally purchased houses right in the middle of the green belt for that very reason - not to have a huge warehouse on our doorstep! Barn lane and the A49 are already full of traffic as is !

Are Peel Holdings going to fund the shortfall for deprecating values of your house ??

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

The decision to develop Haydock Point appears to be one to be taken by your local council and not the UK Government. You can use this page to find out who your local councillors are and how to contact them:

www.gov.uk/find-your-local-councillors

Once an application is made for the development to take place, all local residents have the right to request that a planning application be ‘called in’ by the Department for Communities and Local Government. This means that it will assess the planning application against certain criteria and decide if a full inquiry is needed. For more information, including the criteria and how to request the call in of a planning application, see:

http://researchbriefings.files.parliament.uk/documents/SN00930/SN00930.pdf

You could also contact your local MP, who may wish to request the decision is called in if they agree with you. You can use this page to find out who your local MP is and how to contact them:

http://www.parliament.uk/mps-lords-and-offices/mps/

If you want the UK Government or Parliament to take action, for example to amend the legislation and policy framework which governs planning and development decisions taken by local authorities, you could start a new petition specifically asking for that action, giving as your reasons the proposal to develop Haydock Point and its likely effects.
