The aircraft noise, poor air quality and excessive traffic are already at unbearable levels in Newdigate. It is impossible to enjoy any peaceful time in this beautiful area of Surrey countryside with current levels of aircraft noise, and we should not be expected to to suffer even more. Also adding more car parks at the airport will inevitably result in further motor traffic from all over the country and just add to the intolerable traffic congestion on the M25 and M23. When low flying aircraft, often cutting the corner of their agreed flight path, pass overhead, we worry about the quality of the air we are breathing. Politicians talk about levelling up, so new runways should be further north.
