London Southend Airport and Environs Joint Area Action Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 9987

Received: 05/05/2009

Respondent: Mrs Rita Walton

Representation Summary:

As a resident with children and grandchildren living in Martock Ave under the flight path I strongly object to the proposed extension. My young grandchildren run scared into the house every time a plane flies over and you cannot have a conversation in the garden when planes are flying overhead. Night flights will make it impossible to sleep. At present planes seem to fly too low, this will only increase not improve.

The A13 and A127 are congested enough without increasing traffic in the area.
