Lane Head South Residents Group is holding its Annual General Meeting on Monday, 16 March, with this year’s meeting including a special presentation on the latest developments in the proposed Tritax Big Box rail freight terminal.
The presentation is designed to give residents access to clear, verified information about the proposed ILPN Rail Freight Interchange, which would see 17 warehouses and a rail terminal built on more than 500 acres of land along Winwick Lane, opposite Kenyon Hall Farm. With the next public consultation now pushed back to early summer 2026 — following more than 900 responses to the previous round — the aim is to keep the community well-informed and help prevent misinformation ahead of that process.
The AGM begins at 7pm, with the full residents’ meeting starting at 7.15pm. The meeting takes place at The Meeting Room, Travel Lodge, Miller and Carter, 322 Newton Road, Lowton, WA3 1HD. Attendees are asked to bring a minimum cash contribution of £1.50 to help cover room hire, printing and other expenses.
This year’s AGM is especially significant, as the group is looking to fill several committee positions. The current vacancies are Vice Chair, Minutes Secretary and Group Secretary, while the Treasurer role is also up for re-appointment, with a nomination already received. If you’ve ever considered getting more involved in your local community, this could be a great opportunity.
Anyone wanting to find out more about the roles before the meeting is encouraged to get in touch with the group by email ahead of 16 March if possible: lhsrg00@gmail.com.
