Shrewsbury incinerator decision due today
Wednesday 1st September 2010, 10:14AM BST.
A decision was due to be made today on controversial £60 million plans to build an incinerator in Shrewsbury.
Veolia wants to build the incinerator at Battlefield, but hundreds of campaigners say it should be turned down on health grounds.
A Shropshire Council planning committee was due to make a decision this afternoon after it was postponed last month after people who wanted to speak at the meeting complained.

We need this to be stopped. Shrewsbury is supposed to be a great,historic town, not a health hazard. Why shrewsbury, surely somewhere like Wolverhampton or Coventry,(which are bigger and more important). Coventry, for example, is covered in factories, why is it us who have to get this ‘punishment. If this does happen, many of our much loved population will leave. if anybody does have a reply for the incinerator, i am happy to debate.
