Extension to Waste Transfer Facility at Kingmoor Works: Application Submitted

Stephenson Halliday Ltd has submitted a planning application to extend the Waste Transfer Facility at Kingmoor Works on behalf of Cumbria Waste Recycling. The site at Kingmoor has been operating since the early 1990’s and its throughput has grown reflecting both Government’s aims for waste management and the public’s enthusiasm for recycling. The extension is needed to provide a much more efficient layout which should reduce traffic manoeuvring within the site, increase the speed of delivery of loads and improve safety on the site. Looking to the future, the extension would also help the facility cater for the anticipated further increase in throughput as additional recycling initiatives come into effect. We look forward to assisting Cumbria Waste Recycling in this post submission phase to secure planning permission for this development. A decision on the planning application is expected later this year.
