As you will be aware, due to a technical fault with the Planning Inspectorate’s online Relevant Representation form, users were not able to make submissions on the final day of the representation period. The fault has now been resolved, and we apologise for any inconvenience this caused.

You can submit a representation and register as an Interested Party by navigating to the project webpage of the National Infrastructure Planning website: https://infrastructure.planninginspectorate.gov.uk/projects/south-east/gatwick-airport-northern-runway/.

If you previously submitted a representation via email due to the website fault, you will need to resubmit this via the online form by the above deadline in order for it to be valid.

Consultation deadline is approaching for Gatwick- Have your say

The deadline for you to register and make initial comment on the Gatwick Consultation is 29th October 2023. Please sign up o have your say: The link to the registration page is here

Gatwick have proposed to replace the standby runway with a full second runway. If this happens capacity at Gatwick will be as busy as Heathrow. This will have a huge impact on the area.

As a Parish Council we are concerned the impact this will have on the area we live in and have objected to the application and the significant damage and impact it will have on the Parish and beyond. There are great concerns regarding noise and pollutants, on HPC residents and on the AONB environment around us, in addition to the potential impact on housing, employment and infrastructure as well as the wider environmental considerations.

We urge you to register and make comment. You can do this anytime from now up until 29th October 2023. The link to the registration page is here

At the time of registering, you must include your initial comments on the proposal. These must be about what you consider to be the main issues and impacts and include anything that may affect your day-to-day life. Once registered you are then able to submit further comments.  The GAAC website has some useful information regarding wording. Please visit https://www.gacc.org.uk/gacc-responses-and-briefings.php

 

School Bus Survey

Tom Tugendhat, MP, has opened his annual School Bus Survey . If you have children who get the bus to school, or know of someone who does, please do complete the survey.  The link to the survey is here.

Already there has been hundreds of responses and Tom is speaking to bus operators, schools and Kent County Council (KCC) to resolve the issues from the survey responses so far. Overcrowding is an issue on many routes and I know some routes have had timings changed due to delays. He is also keen to hear from anyone who has had trouble getting the Kent Travel Saver delivered from KCC.
