New Gatwick taxiway objection
The CAGNE objection to the Gatwick Airport permitted development rights application for a new taxi way off the main runway Planning Application – CR/2019/0448/CON for the following reasons:
We feel this application for incremental changes like this to be disingenuous at a time when the management of Gatwick Airport are seeking a master plan for 3 runways as they will increase the number of aircraft per hour, traffic, pollution and add CO2.

This the CAGNE response to the CAP 1616 consultation on Route 4 stage 2 – it is extremely unfair that Gatwick have chosen to only consult those under Route 4 leaving those under other westerly routes vulnerable to noise being moved as suggested in the Gatwick stage 2 paper.

They make interesting viewing.
