Company operating planned Bristol Airport Parking without permission
13.06.07
A company planning to open a new 1200 space Bristol Airport parking facility on a mushroom farm near the airport has been using it without permission, the Western Mercury reports.
Just days after Bristol Park and Fly revealed its plans for a park and ride scheme at Monaghan's Mushroom Farm, to serve Bristol Airport, a villager found a website advertising airport parking at the farm. The woman called a number on the website posing as a tourist and was given directions to the mushroom farm. At least two further websites direct tourists looking for parking to the site.
Responding to the story, Bristol Park and Fly's managing director, Steven Merry, said: 'There was a mistake with our booking agents and some have gone ahead but it will not be used until we have planning permission. We have spoken to North Somerset Council's enforcement officer about this and there does not seem to be any problem.'
Mr Merry outlined his plans for a 1200 space car park at a meeting attended by more than 70 residents two weeks ago, where fears were raised over noise, light and air pollution. A planning application will be submitted later this month.
