Blackpool Airport objects to wind farm plans
12.07.08
Blackpool Airport has objected to plans for a £2.5 million giant wind turbine tower on the outskirts of Garstang. The airport fears that the 127 metre high turbine proposed for the Dewlay cheese factory off the A6 at Kirkland could hamper their radar - threatening the safety of planes and passengers.
A spokeswoman for the airport there were worries about the tower showing up on its radar and affecting safety. However, Dewlay's agents in the project, Wind Direct, says: ‘We believe that there will be no significant negative effect on Blackpool Airport's ability to safely route aircraft.'
