I am concerned about the environmental impact of the proposed expansion.
-
I am firmly against this project despite the economic benefits to the area. This is a time in which airports should be scaling back, not expanding purely for profit. The investment used for this...

I see no issues with the expansion of Gatwick. It will generate many jobs during and after construction

I am in full support of the expansion. It will bring more jobs and more routes to the airport.

I live close to Gatwick airport. Flights pass above our house. At the moment there are several flights a day and these can be quite noisy under certain weather conditions. It was very noticeably...

The aircraft noise will be closer to my house, and will substatially devalue my house as well as reduce my enjoyment of being able to use my garden. This project will mean more air pollution from...

I have lived in the Crawley area for 16years and the use of the North Runway will only support the economic growth of the town. This will support our children and future generations.

I fully support the runway expansion at Gatwick which is a vital addition to the area, essential for local businesses and the local economy. It should be fully supported by all involved.

At a time when so much emphasis is (correctly) being placed on the reduction of CO2 production, why is this project even being tabled? It is high time that priorities are reassessed, and the true...

Overall, I support the project. It’s essential that transport infrastructure to enable Adur and worthing residents to be able to access the jobs is provided. Current roads, busses and trains are not...

An extra runway does not align with climate targets and should therefore not proceed. Extra plane volume should only go ahead once the emissions of aircraft and the airport are halved. Please invest...

I fully support the expansion. My family are in the area because of the airport, many years now.

I really hope Gatwick can develop a new runway, this proposed expansion is great but it’s not as good as a proper parallel runway where we can have simultaneous operations like most major airports...

Not Impressed. Seriously we are in a climate crisis!

In favour of expansion and second runway

The planned increase in flights will greatly increase the amount of carbon emissions coming from this airport; this will jeopardise the UK's ability to fulfil its COP climate commitments and will...

I feel that the northern rumway will allow Gatwick to grow and provide a safer working structure

This proposal will increase emissions and is contrary to the absolute duty of us all to tackle climate change.

The runway will be good for the area, and future generations.

Growth of my town

A second runway at Gatwick is a far better/cost effective solution than an additional runway at Heathrow. Given the current fiscal climate I am in support of having a second runway in Gatwick
-
I strongly oppose the plans to operate a second regular runway at Gatwick Airport. This cannot be in line with government plans for net zero by 2050

I object to the proposed runway development. Not only will it have a negative impact on the environment (noise, air quality, light pollution) but the expansion will further erode the quality of life...
