There's not that much to tell. Some local residents are understandably concerned about noise, security and light pollution, and their concerns are outlined in the letters to the planning committee on the web site here:

HHVT, VCL and FHHV (alphabet soup!) are working to address those concerns, and many have been as you can see in the documents (see Officer's Report from Jan. 19). The project has been put out to tender and a contractor chosen, meaning that if approved there shouldn't be a long delay for works to begin. That all hangs on planning approval of course.
