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.] https://www.constructionenquirer.com...ision-delayed/ |
