SO WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW?
There are many many ways of dealing with rubbish. Oxfordshire County Council have DECIDED by approving a planning application for a giant waste incinerator AT Ardley Quarry this will be the quick fire, money making, easy short term fix.
WHAT IS SHORT TERM ABOUT A 25 TO 30 YEAR CONTRACT?... NOTHING!
Ardley Quarry has now been nominated as the proposed site chosen by OCC for a planning application. If successful, the 300,000 tonne per annum incinerator will be run for 25 YEARS, controlled by the Viridor who currently run the landfill
A WASTE INCINERATOR DEVELOPMENT AT ARDLEY WILL
Dramatically reduce air quality in Ardley and the surrounding villages,
leading to health risks and a poorer quality of life for everyone!
Increase the traffic on the B430, M40 and all local village roads in the
area by 3 TIMES the current levels. During operational hours 1 HGV vehicle willtravel along the B430 EVERY MINUTE!
Significantly reduce housing, land & business values in the Bicester area
by 20% and destroy the beautiful countryside we love to live in.
Incinerator technology is an OLD, DIRTY & LAZY process and NO ONE to date
can prove that emissions from its 82 meter chimney are 100% safe.
Will discourage residents and business to recycle in a county that has one
of the best recycling levels in the UK.
Rubbish from all over Oxfordshire and possibly shipped in from other
counties will be driven in HGV’s across the county to Ardley.
THESE ARE JUST SOME OF THE MANY REASONS
WHY YOU MUST SAY NO AND OBJECT
TO THE ARDLEY INCINERATOR
