Health and Safety Executive Recommends Against Norfolk Coast Filling Station Due to Gas Pipeline Risks
FLOW CONTROL
Plans for a filling station in Caister-on-Sea, Norfolk, face challenges after the Health and Safety Executive advised against the project due to an underground gas pipeline. The pipeline, a high-pressure line connecting Bacton Gas Terminal to Great Yarmouth Power Station, poses safety hazards. Great Yarmouth Borough Council may choose to disregard the recommendation, but if they grant permission, the HSE could seek intervention from the Secretary of State for Housing.
