We live in the village of LEIGH which previously has not been overflown - the flight paths were changed without sanction and we suffered terribly from noise pollution … this has recently been improved by the Gatwick action group demanding traffic be moved back to the original flight path …still we have air traffic diverted overhead that should not be here. Any further development of Gatwick will seriously impact our quality of life in our community and the chance that we will be overflown on a more regular basis As horse owners we already live in fear of riding on our country lanes due to the volume of fast traffic including taxis - further expansion at Gatwick will impact our already busy road traffic very badly. Pollution from the increased road and air traffic will impact the health of all who live in this beautiful area
