Nick Timothy MP defends villages from HGV deluge

Nick Timothy MP in Great Wratting and Kedington

On 7 May 2026, Nick Timothy MP sent Suffolk County Council his objection to an application for a waste management facility near Great Wratting and Kedington.

If it goes ahead, it would mean a very large number of lorry movements in and out of the site each day.

With narrow village roads completely unsuitable for this activity, I raised strong objections.

To view the documents associated with the application for change of use, please go to the Suffolk Planning Portal and search for reference: SCC/0188/25SE

To read my objection, please see below.
