No doubt you are aware of the plans to build a waste management site along the A406 and the huge campaign mounted to stop the scheme. Here is the latest update from the Pinkham Way Alliance.  For more details or to get involved visit their website (http://www.pinkhamwayalliance.org/).

Haringey’s Core Strategy (now called ‘Strategic Policies’). At a hearing on February 22nd, we fought Haringey’s move to redesignate the Pinkham Way site as ‘industrial’. The inspector has agreed with us on this main point and has not permitted the council to make the change. It was clearly a specious attempt to make the land suitable for waste management as required by the Mayor’s planning guidelines for London.
