Aviation noise regulation a @transportgovuk.bsky.social statutory responsibility. This is a lethal combination of missing public noise-complaint reporting;systemic failure of CCO noise procedures;use of non-diagnostic averaged compliance metrics = governance failure #Heathrow

@w-2.bsky.social day 9: continuous exposure to unsafe,unmonitored aircraft noise occurring outside published flight paths,beyond established noise contour assessments.Disturbance reflects serious failure of oversight + a blatant disregard for public health, wellbeing+ residents’ right to peace.

@transportgovuk.bsky.social Investigate flight movements on 09CPT route by @w-2.bsky.social , hitting areas with a void in noise monitoring, departures in violation every few minutes. #Heathrow a highly abusive corporation failing to respond to stake holder’s concerns,running roughshod over lives

A sad day for climate action. Heathrow’s third runway getting government backing sends the message that airport expansion matters more than safeguarding our future. We need leadership that prioritises people and planet. #Climate www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Heathrow's plan for longer third runway chosen by government
Under the selected plan, the runway would be up to 3.5km long and require a new road tunnel under the airport.
