The expansion of the Port of Tyne Biomass Facility
If the biofuel protest lobby in the US and Canada get their way this source of biomass will dry up and we upset Mr Putin the sources in Siberia will stop tomorrow but that is for the people who invest in the Port of Tyne to worry about.
What is of concern for some residents are the consequences of the expansion which required the lengthening of River Quay and the closure of Tyne Dock.
One in particular is the displacement of a ship repair to a primarily residential area across town.
