Date set for inquiry into Salford recycling plant


Sky Properties' appeal against Salford City Council's rejection of its £70m plan
for the Green Lane Eco Park in Monton, Salford will be heard in May.

 

On Friday 22nd February, the Mayor of London called on Londoners to reuse their
plastic bags and say ‘no’ to accepting new plastic bags. On average, Londoners
use over 37 million new plastic bags each week – a weekly habit that adds to an
annual total of 2.2 billion new plastic bags in the capital.
