I am concerned about the infrastructure surrounding the expansion and how this will impact both the countryside and the traffic and the ability to travel within the local area. The roads from the villages to the airport and to the M1 are not too bad especially since the work at junction 10 was completed but the motorway and local area especially the villages will be heavily impacted especially in Slip End which has the Airparks facility with buses running every 15 minutes and parking for several hundred cars, will this route and parking be affected by the additional number of passengers? Will the skys become more noisy. Where will the the additional parking be located. Will this affect the village of slip end and the surrounding villages? Will the property, its value and any legal searches be impacted when I look to sell in the future? I am interested in how the expansion will impact our daily lives, the traffic and the environment plus if property values will be negatively affected. Will it affect my ability to let the property? I want to know how the expansion will affect the surrounding areas with the extra numbers expected to travel from and to the airport.
