Waste Management consider use of rail for rubbish transfer
Hi neighbours, the Mahurangi East Residents and Ratepayers Association have put a proposal forward to Waste Management, requesting it consider using the Northern Rail Line for its rubbish transfer to get 300 rubbish trucks off deadly SH1 in the Dome Valley, should the landfill gain council approval.
