CN rail is on the verge of ruining our beautiful town of Milton with a proposed 400-acre rail distribution centre that will see 1500 trucks DAILY in and out of that distribution hub.
Residence have vowed to lay down on the tracks to stop this from becoming reality in our town. Please do your part and sign thispetition.
Here are some more details below:
CN plans to build between Britannia and Lower Base Line, east of Tremaine road. These are designed to transfer cargo containers between rail cars and trucks.
This 24/7 operation will see approximately atruckevery minute,24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
It will be approximately3 km in lengthbut will employ only a handful of people.It will consume 400 acres of prime real-estate that otherwise would’ve generated millions in taxes that rest of us will now have to cover.The facility will move hundreds of truck-loads of material (including industrial and hazardous material) 24 hours a day, surrounded by residential area.
