Free Buses to Runway Consultation for those under threat
There is a free bus services to the Government consultation event in West Drayton on Saturday 4th March 2017
People living in the Heathrow Villages (Harmondsworth, Harlington, Longford, Sipson and Cranford) will be the most severely impacted if a third runway is built – yet the Department for Transport has NO CONSULTATION EVENTS IN THOSE VILLAGES.
Following complaints, the Department for Transport (DfT) has now organised free bus services so residents can attend the consultation event in West Drayton (open 10am-5pm) on Saturday 4th March.

Remember to ask about pollution, noise, traffic and where they will put the thousands of displaced people. They are not telling people about flight paths or the changes to our road system, including the diversion of the A4. This would mean that the people in West Drayton would get increased noise and pollution from both the third runway and a busier M4 and the newly diverted A4.
Even if you are not in the demolition zone or the wider compensation area, do not assume that a third runway would not adversely affect you. This area would pay a very high price to increase Heathrow's profits.
