THERE has been a lot of rumour and conjecture about the proposed waste management facility on the old Ideal Standard site.

The town council had a productive meeting with Cheshire East on the issue this week.

I want to reassure residents that a bypass and improvements to the towns infrastructure were an integral part of that discussion.

The consultation will begin soon giving all residents a chance to express their opinions and cite any concerns they may have.

This development could be a big positive for Middlewich offering regeneration and jobs but we must ensure that it is done in the right way.

If anyone has any concerns and wants to talk to me about the proposed development please get in touch.

Cllr Rachel Pendleton Labour Town councillor
