There is a nice little article in this weeks edition of "Planning" by Graeme Bell, Vice-president of the Town and Country Planning Association, which sets out what most of us really know, but do not dare to say. Heathrow airport has outgrown its site, its location, its buildings, its surroundings and its land-side infrastructure and in any reasonable society the airport function would have been moved out of the suburbs to a better site years ago, and the land re-developed as a part of Greater London.
If that were to happen, we would have a large area of derelict land with main-line quality electrified rail station, and a fully functioning tube line already in place! What do you think of that!
"Planning" is the Journal of the Royal Town Planning Institute
