Leeds Bradford Airport expansion plans meeting
27.02.08
Expansion plans will be on the agenda at a public meeting organised for people living near Leeds Bradford Airport. The public meeting at 7.30 on March 6 at Yeadon Cricket Club, has been organised by Yeadon Labour Party.
Airport director of operations Peter Willis will speak at the meeting about proposals to double the number of passengers to 7 million by 2015. Labour Party spokesman John Eveleigh said a recent survey by Labour found many Yeadon residents wanted to know more about how the expansion will affect the local area.
He said: ‘Some people think it will mean more jobs for local people and easier travel, others are worried about pollution and traffic. People in the area will bear the brunt of expansion and our city councillors should be informing and consulting them about how Leeds will control development.’
The airport was sold last May by the five district councils of West Yorkshire to private equity firm Bridgepoint Capital.
