MIN24 Sites for Aggregates Depots – Access, Location and Amenity Considerations

The local planning authority will support in principle enhanced throughput at existing depots and the provision of new ones as close as possible to the long-term centres of demand in the following circumstances:

  1. With satisfactory direct access to the primary road network;
  2. Where there will be no loss of environmental amenity, especially by excessive noise, dust, fumes or traffic; 
  3. Where visual impact is minimised and overall design is of a high standard.
