Flanshaw Business Park: Nearly 200 objections to plans for huge 24-hour lorry biofuel station in Wakefield

Residents and local councillors claim the round-the-clock operation could disturb residents living near to the site in Alverthorpe. CNG Fuels Ltd has applied to build a biomethane fuelling station for trucks on the site of a former abattoir at Flanshaw Business Park Biomethane is compressed natural gas sourced from waste products including food, animal, and waste water.

Coun Pickersgill added: “We are encouraging as many people who may be affected by this to put in their objections by the closing date of June 3.” Wakefield Council has received 198 objections since the plan was submitted in April. One objector said: “This proposal is too close to residential housing and would cause 24 hour noise, additional traffic to an already congested area and an environmental impact. It needs to be located away from any residential areas.
