Campaign against Dovesdale Incinerator near Blackwood appears to be at an end

THE long campaign against the Dovesdale Incinerator, near Blackwood, appears to be at an end after campaigners lost their Judicial Review case against the council.

Campaigners from the Dovesdale Action Group went to the Court of Session in Edinburgh in October to challenge the decision of South Lanarkshire Council to grant planning permission for the waste treatment facility.

However, they received confirmation at the weekend that the Judicial Review had sided with South Lanarkshire’s planners and the developer Scotgen.
