Nottingham East Midlands Airport plan prompts noise fears
27.04.06
Owners of Nottingham East Midlands Airport are facing criticism over plans to expand. Officials at Harborough District Council complained the move would lead to almost 400 more flights a day over the area. They also questioned how the airport could regulate aircraft noise levels over local homes.
Officials from Harborough District Council said they were also concerned jobs created at the site would be low-skill and low-wage - and criticised this as being inconsistent with government plans for more high skill jobs.
An airport spokesman said Nottingham East Midlands welcomed all responses and a final plan would be published later this year.
