Sheerness grinding plant secures planning permission

UK: The planning applications committee of Kent County Council has approved Hercules Enterprises' Euro46.5m plan for a new 500,000t/yr grinding plant at Sheerness Docks on the Isle of Sheppey. The Sheerness Times Guardian newspaper has reported that the council assented subject to the producer's adherence to its particulate and dust management plan and continual noise monitoring. When commissioned, the new plant will create 52 new jobs, generate up to 144 truck movements per day and increase traffic on the A249 by 1%.

Hercules Enterprises' director Stuart Mason Elliot said that the new facility will help to move cement production away from its reliance on road transport. He said “This is not an open, dated, dusty old operation, but a fully-enclosed, clean, modern, environmentally responsible and sustainable plant designed to be a good neighbour to residents and other occupants of the port.”
