Laybrook Landfill - Cory Environmental has submitted an application to develop a landfill site at Laybrook Brickworks (about 3.5km from Ashington along the B2133 Billingshurst Road). Once the County Council has validated this planning application, expected anytime now, the public consultaiton period starts. The application is expected to propose that the Lorry Route is the A24 Ashington junction (at the north of the village) and the B2133 Billingshurst Road. Traffic predictions show that @100 lorries per day will use the route to and from the site. We need to encourage as many residents as possible to write to West Sussex County Council about the application. Click here to see the Parish Council's draft letter in response to the application. For more information visit www.nolaybrooklandfill.co.uk  Get your letters prepared and ready to send now.
