Another part of Aggregate Industries accused of breaching planning controls

In Devon, Aggregate Industries has a history of breaching planning conditions – as we have frequently posted about, most recently here. 

Last year, Aggregate Industries acquired Sivyer Logistics, "a leading handler of construction and demolition waste (CDW) materials to the London construction industry." Dragan Maksimovic, Aggregate Industries’ latest CEO, crowed: 

Sivyer Logistics is an impressive business that has multiple synergies with our own…

Residents local to Morden Wharf in Greenwich seem far from impressed with Sivyer, claiming the company has "a reputation for flouting planning conditions".

@EnvAgency One more time! Sivyer at Morden Wharf with material piled at least 2m above the boundary walls despite a DEMP in place. The licence issued by the EA needs to be withdrawn. @EnvAgencySE @TheMurkyDepths @BBCLondonNews @TamFinkelstein @MTPennycook @AggregateUK pic.twitter.com/5XMsWPcMZP

@David_Llew @Will_nicholas the Thames Path at the Sivyer/Morden Wharf site. Sivyer dust is being swept onto the foreshore, no doubt ending up in the Thames. This much dust means inadequate dust suppression on site. Time for RBG to step up and sort this out. pic.twitter.com/MXYb5WVJGE

An older picture of the same site. If heavy industry is to coexist alongside residential developments then companies like Sivyer in this case really have to adhere to the highest demolition waste handling standards, this ain't them. pic.twitter.com/lvaSssrCyt
