Gatwick Airport’s Northern Runway proposal will have a significant impact on surface transport in our community, West Hoathly Parish Council would like to raise the following points. • There will be a significant increase in traffic on the C319 through the villages of West Hoathly & Sharpthorne • Unofficial bypass from East Sussex to Gatwick- - Wych Cross C2 East Sussex, -C319, -B2028, -A264, -M23 J10, -J9 Gatwick • The B2110 B2028 Crossroad in Turners Hill and the T-Junction at Wallage Lane B2028 are already severely congested. • GAL evaluations and studies only extend to the M23 and A23. • There has been no study of traffic movements east and southeast of Gatwick and therefore there are no mitigations. • Failure to build an East Grinstead bypass. • There is still no eastern arm at the J9 M23 airport spur junction. • A22 between Imberhorne Lane and Felbridge is scheduled for 'improvements' as part of SPD SA20 550 homes Imberhorne Farm.
