CORYTON TO WYMONDHAM PIPELINE
That this House notes with concern the decision of BP to close the oil pipeline from Coryton in Essex to Wymondham in Norfolk to household and diesel fuel; notes that this decision could result in up to 70 HGV vehicles a week using the A11 and A140; further notes that this decision comes just 18 months after BP made the decision to stop delivering petrol via the pipeline, causing up to 70 HGV lorries a week to travel through Norfolk; and urges BP to review this decision in the light of the environmental impact of up to 150 HGV lorries a week routed along the A11 and the A140.
