Berkswell Quarry Cornets End Lane Meriden Solihull CV7 7LH

Awaiting decision Solihull PL/2023/01192/PPFL Major Full Other

Works: Extension Major scheme

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

The phased extraction of approximately 470,000 tonnes of sand and gravel as a south-east and north-west extension to Berkswell Quarry; the use of the existing Berkswell Quarry Mineral Processing Plant and related infrastructure for the duration of the development; the use of the existing Berkswell Quarry access to Cornets End Lane; the construction of temporary soil screen and storage mounds (top and sub-soils); the phased restoration of the extraction area to re-create approximate original ground levels through the importation and placement of inert restoration material and the re-establishment of an arable agricultural after use with biodiversity enhancements and flood mitigation measures.
