Design and Layout

The MBT waste facility has been designed to fit in with surrounding land uses and neighbouring industries.

A full Landscape and Visual Impact assessment has been prepared to consider the effect of the development on the local landscape.

The site is generally well screened with views of the development from the surrounding areas being limited to filtered distant views above or between vegetation and existing built forms.

Viridor intends to add to existing trees and greenery on site to ensure local views will not be spoilt and that local wildlife will be supported.

On completion, the finished buildings will have a beneficial visual impact when seen from surrounding areas, as derelict industrial buildings and structures will be replaced by modern buildings appropriate to the site and the surrounding land uses. They will not compromise the wider landscape character.
