Travis Perkins Plan Sparks Noise Row | UK News

Travis Perkins is set to open a massive new warehouse at Selsdon Goods Yard, despite fierce local opposition—28 complaints, zero supporters. Residents fear noise spikes of 16-25 decibels (already 34-41 during the day), traffic chaos, and safety risks for kids at nearby schools. The council defends the industrial vibe, pushing for later hours (7 AM weekdays, 8 AM weekends) and a Noise Management Plan with electric forklifts, screened loading zones, and capped storage. Developers tout a $6M investment, 35 jobs, and green tech like solar panels. The final call? Council’s Planning Committee on August 20th.
