A 'CONSPIRACY' exists to create a new road for High Heavens waste centre - which would then be used for the new community stadium - a dismayed Booker campaigner claims.

Proposals have been made to make High Heavens waste centre on Clay Lane, Booker, Great Marlow, one of two waste transfer hubs in the south of Buckinghamshire.

The site is opposite to Wycombe Air Park, where the new ground for Wycombe Wanderers and London Wasps could be built.

Waste Recycling Group wants to use High Heavens, run by Buckinghamshire County Council, as a site where waste can be 'bulked up'.

It would be transferred in larger vehicles to a proposed 'Energy from Waste' plant at Greatmoor, north Bucks.

Wycombe District Council Deputy Leader Cllr Tony Green recently said there could be a 'common solution' if both schemes went ahead.

He said a matchday only road from the Wycombe Road, near Handy Cross, could possibly be used for waste vehicles too, but he insisted this was purely speculative.

A map, recently obtained under the FOI act, produced for Wycombe Sports Development Limited in 2009, showed potential improvements to the Wycombe Road/Ragmans Lane junction and an upgrade to make the connecting bridleway a 'B' standard road.

Booker Common and Woods Protection Society spokesman Hedley Luxton claimed the increased number of waste vehicles was “a red herring” that would be used as a “convenient” justification for one of the councils to build a new road for the stadium.

Mr Luxton, part of the anti-stadium coalition GASP, said: “I don't believe in flying saucers but I do believe there is a conspiracy here.

“Behind the scenes they'll come up with this marvellous solution, 'ah we're going to do this new road'. I believe that's the conspiracy.”

Marlow Bottom Residents Association Chairman Peter Borrows fears such a road would be “a freebie” for stadium developers to help overcome traffic problems.

But Mike Brooks, Chief Executive of WSDL said the 2009 document “is now out of date and being overtaken by more detailed planning.”

He said: “WSDL have always said that any application for a new stadium would need to address the issue of access and it is certainly true to say that they are looking at this issue as we want to ensure that any new development at Booker has the best possible access and minimises its impact on existing communities.

“A new road from Junction 4 could certainly help deliver this but it is too early in the process to say anything further at this stage.”

Buckinghamshire County Council Martin Tett, Cabinet Member for Planning and Environment confirmed there were no plans for a new road in WRG's planning proposal.

“Clearly colleagues in Wycombe District Council are free to approach us with ideas but we have no plans for such a road at present," he said.

WRG said in a statement suggestions of an associated development with the stadium scheme for a new road was “totally incorrect” and it has “not had any meetings or discussions with representatives of the air park or any parties associated with the proposed stadium.”

Mike Abbott, Planning Manager for WRG, said residents had expressed concerns over extra lorries “heightened by the recent proposals for a sports stadium on the airfield site.”

A public exhibition on the High Heavens proposals takes place tomorrow at Sands Village Hall, Lane End, High Wycombe, from 1pm to 7.30 pm.
