In short, there are three reasons why the proposal to use the emergency runway as a normal runway is a bad idea: - the local transport infrastructure is already heavily loaded, and will not be able to take the additional traffic; - the local residents already put up with a lot of noise and road traffic from the airport, and this should not be increased; - the proposal goes against the stated aims of the authorities with regard to aircraft noise and pollution.
