France: Switzerland-based F. Scott Group is seeking public opinion on its plans to build a new cement plant, named Coastline West, at the multi-bulk terminal of the port of Montoir-de-Bretagne near Saint-Nazaire, according to Ouest-France. The €55m project, covering 6.4 hectares, is now under public consultation until 15 October 2025. Raw materials such as limestone and slag will be shipped in by boat and transported by truck to the site, with traffic reportedly expected at around 13 trucks per day. The proposed facility will employ 35 people once operational.
Finished cement will be shipped by both truck and rail, with construction expected to take 18 months, requiring around 50 workers on-site during the building phase.
