Legally compliant? No
Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? No
The Core Stratergy, which is still a legal document, stated that there would be no expansion of Magna Park unless a railhead was provided. This new proposal makes no provision for a railhead. It also seems strange that the proposal of 700,000 sq m is the same total as the 2 proposed planning applications lodged with HDC. This smacks of coercion and coruption between the applicants and HDC.
There is already massive expansion of warehouse distribution sites at Dirft, Rugby, Hinckley and the East Midlands. Why do we need more in this area.
