I don't think the second track is useful because: Traffic in the area is already congested, The highway is not lit, Because the airport charges prohibitive parking fees, many travellers park in the residential area. The airport uses old machines, most of them use diesel or combustion engines (Charlotte ) During the pandemic, the airport cancelled most of the employment contracts, so it does not represent a model employer The airport brings a lot of pollution to the area and has done nothing to reduce it. The airport operates flights 24 hours a day, so the second runway will double the number of planes in the area. (this being 1600 at present) The temperature increased in the area due to pollution by 2 degrees on average. The surrounding villages do not have money to keep the lights on all night, so with the increase in the number of travellers, there will be many more accidents. The airport applies taxes for people arriving by car, so if the train station (which is working from the airport stops operating, it congests all the stations in the area) I believe that other airports can have the opportunity to develop better and thus the economy will develop horizontally and help to create a more diverse and spread connection throughout the island, The airport pays close to the minimum wage, which makes it not the most desirable employer in the area, From the canal water there is a pungent smell in the area, especially behind the North terminal
