If @BroxbourneBC are failing to monitor and control PM2.5, PM10 and Nitrogen dioxide emissions from construction sites then its residents may face adverse health effects, especially if they have pre-existing conditions such as asthma. #lordstreet #hoddesdon @DefraGovUK

49 days to go! 🗓 Did you know that #airpollution is estimated to contribute towards up to 36,000 deaths each year in the UK? This is why we need to come together on 17 June for #CleanAirDay to make a difference. Check out ➡️ cleanairday.org.uk to get involved

@BroxbourneBC has some of the worst air quality in the UK. When will you be seriously tackling this issue that affects health and the economy? You’ve drawn up various pathetic “soft” measures, largely related to minor improvements buses.

Maybe start off by controlling needless construction traffic going through hoddesdon and up Lord Street then all the way back to High Leigh Garden Village?

And maybe requiring best measures for dust controls and monitoring to reduce PM10 and PM2.5 in the Borough. It’s unacceptable to allow a construction site to not minimise air pollution in our highly polluted borough @CharlesWalkerMP
The coroner is very clear there needs to be more monitoring & the results must be communicated to individuals. The harm exposure does to individual health must be communicated. I’ve spent a year informing Londoners about the increase in AP & the damage it is doing to their health

2. Increase capacity to monitor air quality to improve public information📈 "There is a low public awareness of the sources of information about national and local pollution levels. Greater awareness would help individuals reduce their personal exposure to air pollution" 3/5

Is everyone enjoying their dust on Lord Street and adjoining roads in Hoddesdon? 😂 @BroxbourneBC @TaylorWimpey @CharlesWalkerMP Complain to the council at: [email protected] and [email protected] #hoddesdon #broxbourne #dust #AirPollution
Thinking of our sister Els who fell asleep on 15/2/13. She is the 1st person in the world to have air pollution on a death certificate. We miss her a lot & are proud of her. We learnt in court about our genetic link & how dirty air affects our lungs. We read your kind messages❤️

On world earth day @TaylorWimpey had a man with a hose pipe wetting large mounds of soil (instead of covering them). @BroxbourneBC need to make @TaylorWimpey re-vegetate or cover large mounds. What a waste. @DefraGovUK @TWimpeySupport @EnvAgency #EarthDay #WorldEarthDay
Voices of local resident and the government initiatives to bring down PM2.5 and PM10 don't seem to matter to @BroxbourneBC Why does the council not want to comply with the clean air strategy? publications.parliament.uk/p… @DefraUKAir @cleanairdayuk @UK_CleanAir @WHO

@TaylorWimpey You've removed and damaged the protected trees on Bramble Lane in Hoddesdon. Now the environment will suffer for it! Today your various contractors were blocking residential streets, prevent cars passing. Multiple residents had to ask you to move. @BroxbourneBC

It's a complete joke as your Chief Executive officer, Pete Redfern, states on his profile : "in a profitable, safe and environmentally responsible manner." I think the main word there is profitable. taylorwimpey.co.uk/corporate…
We are still awaiting a public comment from @BroxbourneBC on the extensive damage on Bramble Lane. Please complain to the council at: [email protected] highleighhoddesdon.co.uk/202… @ArbAssociation @AncientTreesATF @WildlifeTrusts @_BCT_ @TiCLme
