'Toxic town' residents fear they are breathing in deadly asbestos
Daily Express
|August 14, 2025
DOZENS of residents living near a new "toxic town" fear they are being forced to breathe in deadly "asbestos dust".
Residents claim the residue is coming from building work on nearby contaminated land.
They are calling for a halt to construction after they claim five samples of dust sent off for testing came back positive for asbestos.
The locals in Westgate, Cleckheaton, in West Yorkshire, say they are "fearing for their lives", with adults and children suffering from health issues, including being prescribed inhalers to deal with breathlessness and having chest X-rays to check for cancer.
Dust has reportedly been found on properties up to three streets behind the development location, locals claim.
