PLANS for an ambitious waste site in town which can process up 100, 000 tonnes of rubbish have been given the go-ahead by Worcestershire County Council.
Planning permission for the proposed change of use of agricultural buildings and land to Material Reclamation Facility (MRF) at Weights Farm, opposite the Abbey Stadium, were discussed by the county council earlier this week.
The proposal, by the owners of Redditch Skip Hire and Waste Transfer Station, will see six buildings converted into one site.
Currently the station, close to the town centre, handles 25,000 tonnes of waste.
