Letter: Have your say on Gatwick runway plan
It was really well attended and included representatives from many of the various areas of Tinsley Lane, Three Bridges.
A member of the Communication Team from Gatwick Airport addressed the meeting regarding the proposed idea for a second runway.

Hide AdIt was pleasing to hear that a consultation on the acceptability of one of the three runway positions, is to be launched on Monday 17th March, so look out for a letter to drop through your letterbox explaining such a consultation, including where/when it will be held.
I believe, for Crawley, it is to be held at the Hawth on 5th April. Hopefully the letter will state times.
I entreat everyone in Crawley, regardless where you live, to all attend such a consultation so that a clear and strong directive from the people is put forward to both the owners of Gatwick airport and the Davis Commission. If you can’t, I believe there is a website where you can make your feelings known.
Ignoring the consultation will not make the decision go away; it will not give a message one way or the other.
Thank you and once again Well Done Tinsley Lane Residents.
Cllr Brenda Burgess, Crawley Borough Council (Con, Three Bridges)
