I think you need to clarify what this public consultation process is detailing. Is it a new wide spaced 2nd runway to the south of the existing one, or is this a consultation to widen and use the existing northern emergency run way . I would be more inclined to support the northern emergency runway widening option over a new runway to the south. This will limit air traffic to approx 30% increase over current levels, which would impact local residents far less than a new wide spaced southern runway.
