London Southend Airport & Environs Joint Area Action Plan Issues & Options Paper
Representation ID: 1465
Received: 26/07/2008
Respondent: Mr T Clark
Let the airport get back to where it used to be, offering a meaningful range of flights to the local population, to places they want to go to.
Technology has moved on greatly since the original heyday of the airport, aircraft are much quieter and more fuel efficient than in the 1960's and 1970's, and will continue to develop in this way.
This option 3 is supported by Government policy to make the most use of existing runways, and also Thames Gateway and EEDA policies.
