Further to our autumn 2012 newsletter which may be viewed by clicking 'LOSRA newsletters' at the top of the Home Page and the article published on 25th October (see previous page), CEMEX UK has now made formal application to Surrey County Council for the extraction of gravel from land at Watersplash Farm, Fordbridge Road.
The application includes the erection of processing plant and associated mineral infrastructure, the provision of a new access from Gaston Bridge Road/Green Lane roundabout; restoration involving the importation of inert restoration materials to agriculture, flood meadows, lake and reed beds with public access on the site of 28 hectares; and a temporary diversion of public footpath 53 for the duration of operations.
As a statutory consultee, Spelthorne Council are inviting residents to comment and any representation may be made through the planning portal of the Council Website: http://www.spelthorne.gov.uk/ quoting reference 12/01487/SCC.
