Just what we need in Joppa – more noise and pollution! Is this the start of ‘changing’ that area into heavy industrial zoning?
Actually, this property has been a quarry for the last thirty or forty years.
What will they do with the crushed asphalt and concrete?
Good ?
According to this article on Wikipedia there are plenty of ways to re-purpose old concrete, including mixing the aggregate with new concrete and using it as a base layer instead of rock aggregate.
