Dear Sirs I am writing to express my very grave concern about the proposal to convert the existing taxiway at Gatwick into a second main runway. You will undoubtedly be aware that Gatwick had already...

This will massively increase the UK’s carbon emissions which is incompatible with our declaration of climate emergency, our signing of the Paris agreement, our COP 22 commitments. Apart from...

Gatwick Expansion currently struggles to provide an effective service with one runway and is unable to ensure the air traffic stays in the agreed air corridors over local villages. There is absolutely...

Noise pollution is already too high. We live under the flightpath. In summer, the noise from the planes is unbearable at night, keeping us awake. We cannot open our windows (double glazed) in the heat...

Expanding aviation at a time when climate chaos is ramping up in the UK (see recent storms and flooding) is immensely dangerous and destructive.

Excess pollution. Bad to concentrate pollution in one area like this. Put the runway somewhere else. Not enough capacity for surrounding roads to cope with excess traffic meaning disruption to...

I object to the expansion of Gatwick airport Flying is the fastest way to burn fossil fuels which are causing climate breakdown. Airport expansion is incompatible with maintaining a habitable planet.
-
This application will promote further expansion of a highly polluting mode of transport. In view of the governments 'Net Zero' targets and climate change, is it either advisable or acceptable?
-
I live almost directly under the flight path and planes pass over us at about 1 minute intervals about 75% of the time [when the wind blows from the west]. The amount of noise polution is already...

Uk should be committed to making London net zero by 2030 and reducing air pollution. The aviation sector needs to play a part in this and not undermine our efforts to achieve this goal. I fail to see...

I fully support the the Gatwick Northern runway project. It represents an excellent private investment in the local area that will bring substantial benefits likely to greatly exceed costs as assessed...

This project has not considered the impact on communities surrounding the airport for increased traffic , noise pollution, lack of housing and infrastructure, and also to obtain a second runway by...

I oppose the second runway due to the inevitable additional noise and the extra traffic that it will generate in the local area on roads that are often gridlocked

Quite happy for the project to go ahead

I am a resident, I have lived locally my entire life and I oppose the proposals from Gatwick. The claims about them being a good local employer are laughable. They have stripped that airport and...

I object to the further expansion of Gatwick. Extra noise pollution: already many homes and villages are subjected to loud, regular aircraft passing overhead. This would increase substantially....

I strongly object to this proposed project for the following reasons: NOISE: My property is constantly exposed to aircraft noise flying directly on the overhead flight path above it. These occur...

The current noise levels over(Redacted) from flight arrivals to Gatwick Airport are already at an unacceptable level. These proposals would markedly exacerbate that already unacceptable situation....

Providing new infrastructure to support the further expansion of flight-based travel and tourism seems to deny the existence of climate change, or at least ignore the reasons for it.
-
The noise pollution is already distressing with a majority of planes circling over our property as they stack to land. I can only foresee this issue getting worse should a further runway be approved....

I don’t believe there is a good enough reason to pollute the air further than is happening already. Flight paths and road traffic already impinge on my day to day life, more road traffic in the local...

* NOISE I understand the proposals for Gatwick would allow it to grow to the size of Heathrow. The amount of air traffic noise is currently unbearable, particularly in the spring/summer/autumn months,...

Turning the emergency runway into a full time runway will further increase aircraft noise disturbance from its already unacceptable levels. Furthermore, there is a significant safety concern.

It goes against all the efforts to reduce green house gasses both directly, aircraft emissions and indirectly by the added vehicular traffic and its associated pollution. It compounds an existing...

I strongly oppose the expansion of Gatwick. It is an environmental disaster to increase air traffic in terms of the contribution to global heating which is now reaching crisis points. It will increase...

I support the development of the northern runway at Gatwick provided that, if it goes ahead, it will eliminate the need for a new runway at Heathrow. This is on the assumption that the cost of the...

I object to the increase in noise and air pollution that will be over Horley Reigate & Redhill. It is incompatible with climate change targets & reducing air pollution and CO2 emissions to net zero

I support the expansion of Gatwick to have a second runway, I think it would be a positive move for the region

Noise, pollution, increased traffic on M25 and M23 are just a few issues. We suffered living under the flight path with low flying aircraft despite living 25 miles away. We ended up having to move....

The SE is already overcrowded. M25 cannot cope now. It will be made worse. There will be an increase in pollution. In a time of severe climate change, this should not be encouraged. I will experience...

I am deeply concerned about the carbon footprint of aviation globally. Also the terribly selfish noise pollution that a small number of passengers inflict on local residents.

I am interested in local infrastructure (eg roads), and also the impact on local journeys during the construction phase. Noise, smell and light pollution are also important to me.

My issues with the second runway are: increased noise and frequency of planes coming over. The impact of pollution with the increase in planes and traffic. An increase in traffic, our village is...
