Please find below my letter to the Chief Executive at Wokingham Borough Council regarding A1 Car Spares:
Dear Susan
I am aware that my constituents have met with Wokingham Borough Council to discuss the noise levels arising from A1 Car Spares.
This is a long running situation in which the residents have had to live with the noise generated by A1 on a daily basis. My constituents tell me that A1 have failed to comply with conditions placed on them regarding hours of operation, noise and vibration levels and they have failed to adhere to their own Noise Management Plan. The effect on the quality of life of my constituents cannot be stressed too strongly.
I am told there is relentless grinding noise, with reversing alarms from trucks sound continuously throughout the day.
Since 2019 I have worked with my constituents, Wokingham Borough Council and the Environment Agency in order to bring about a resolution which all parties can live with. Any respite achieved has been temporary and my constituents are understandably frustrated as am I.
The residents have also raised concerns about A1 cutting down protected trees and water pollution as a result of their operations.
I strongly support my constituents and I ask the Council to deal decisively with the problem and bring about a permanent solution which is long overdue.
Yours sincerely
Rt Hon Sir John Redwood
