Kings Walden Parish Council objects to the plans to increase annual passenger numbers from 18m to 32m. If approved they will have a significant effect on the quality of life in the parish: - 70% more flights, and therefore more noise, particularly at night. An increase in noise pollution will affect the parish detrimentally. The parish is already hugely affected by noise pollution from the airport. - growth in air and light pollution and other environmental concerns including the loss of farmland. - more traffic using local rat runs - major earthmoving project to absorb Wigmore Park and surrounding land into a significantly expanded airport will affect the residents of the parish.
