A hearing concerning appeals to the Environment Court over consents granted to Holcim (New Zealand) Ltd to build a cement plant near Weston has been adjourned until the designation of the railway line between Waiareka and the proposed plant is resolved.
More than 200 people or groups have opposed reopening the Waiareka to Weston railway line - a vital component of Holcim (New Zealand) Ltd's plan to build a $200 million cement plant in the Waiareka Valley.
The design of a new $200 million cement plant near Weston is continuing even though its proponent, Holcim (New Zealand) Ltd, is having appeals against its plans lodged with the Environment Court.
