Families living in new homes on the former Ravenscraig site in Motherwell have described plans for a major industrial site on their doorstep as a monstrosity .
Almost 500 formal objections have been lodged against the proposals, which include a large rail complex for logistics firm Russell Group.
The company said the £200m development would generate hundreds of jobs.
And they said they would take every step to minimise disruption.
The development would be built on derelict land which was once home to the largest hot strip steel mill in Western Europe.
