  • "Ground Zero"
  • Hard rock quarry with asphalt plant,concrete batching and concrete crushing all within 100 metres of housing.
  • Proposed expansion environmentaly destructive & of questionable value economically or otherwise to the local area.
  • This is a disgraceful activity so close to residential areas. It must stop now.
  • It's more than big enough. Leave the rest to be enjoyed by nature & nature lovers.
  • This is a disgraceful activity so close to residential areas. It should not be allowed - affecting the health of residents now and nobody knows what health affect in the future.
  • This qurry supplies the greater part of Melbournes gravel needs for the nice smooth roads everyone expects to be there. Most people accept that before moving next door to it but some people don't get it.
  • Well, everyone that bought in the area knew that it was there,the quarry was there long before housing.
