Possible delay for composter application

As you can read on the South Glos website, the Highways Agency have issued an Article 14 Holding Direction for SITA's application to build an In-Vessel Composter (IVC) near Westerleigh. This means that the Council cannot approve the application before 6th May 2008, in order to allow time for SITA to provide the Highways Agency with more information and for the Agency to assess any negative impacts on the motorway.
