Gatwick Airport Expansion Plan : Delayed/Rejected
 
Reports on TV news
The Government wants more people to arrive by Train?

But the Airport Builders
say that's nothing to do with them.




[Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander
said that she was “minded to approve”
the plans but today formally extended
the deadline for a decision until the end of October.

She explained that the nine-month
delay is necessary to evaluate certain
environmental adjustments to the
airport’s expansion plans.
Previously the Planning Inspectorate had
made recommendations around noise
and public transport provision after
initially rejecting the scheme.

“I am issuing a minded to approve
decision that provides some
additional time to seek views from all
parties on the provisions,
prior to a final decision,”
Alexander said in a written
ministerial statement on Tuesday.

The £2.2bn project is privately financed,
requiring no taxpayer money,
and is shovel-ready.]
