I used to work for BP Chemicals from the 1970's when it was a very much larger operation. BP would have liked the road closed back then but they accepted the fact that the road was there prior to them and that took precedence. There was no great inconvenience back then, no hold up for traffic. Any concerns about public safety should not be used in any discussions as unlike decades ago there is far less risk of any public danger. In the past there was far more hazardous chemicals that there is today and today's safety standards are far higher than they used to be. The only reason for Ineos wanting closure of this road is that they can reduce manpower at the gates.

If there was a major accident or fatalities on the only other road into Bo'ness the town would be cut off as no public transport would be able to run x

Having seen the closure of the A904 between Grangemouth - Bo'ness after an appeal was launched by Ineos after the Falkirk Council elected to keep the road open
