Plans for a new waste depot and solar farm in Hailsham have been given the green light to move forward.

Wealden District Council will now move ahead with the next steps of the project.

Design work has already progressed through early stages, with support from waste contractor Biffa, the intended occupier. The proposed new depot includes offices and welfare facilities, a vehicle workshop with bays, welding area, and secure storage, a bin store and wash bay and a large external yard for over 30 waste vehicles, additional staff parking, bike storage, and landscaping.
