The main issues regarding the addition of a second runway at Gatwick will be; Increased noise from aircraft landing and taking off. Increased road traffic going to and from the airport Environmental harm in terms of air quality and noise both from aircraft, and the vehicles used to support them Increased passenger numbers to an airport with particularly poor and expensive transport links to London A further concentration of air passenger movements in the south east when improvement is needed in the north and west of the country Exacerbation of pointless competition with other London airports
