Fears over the future of Nottingham City Airport in Tollerton have been growing amongst nearby residents
Residents of a Nottinghamshire village have spoken of their fears over the planned development of a nearby airport that could see thousands of houses built. since Vistry Homes proposals to construct up to 1,600 houses and a primary school on the site surfaced.
“More traffic will be detrimental to our business, drivers on busy roads tend to stop less. Businesses won’t gain anything from it." Susan Bell, who recently opened an art gallery in Tollerton with her husband, has similar concerns. “We know people need somewhere to live. We’re worried about traffic, there’s already too much through traffic," she said.
“It’s also the loss of the airport, there’s a little community there. Before you know it all the fields will be filled in between here and McDonalds. "Where would kids go to school? And it could increase pressure on doctors in the area. How would it affect the roads? The real shame is the loss of the airport. It’s not like no-one uses it.”
