No expansion should be permitted at the airport until multi model public transport links are available. This needs to be forward looking and bold e.g. a rail link to Temple Meads, or frequent rapid transit connections with a priority lane connecting the airport to Bristol, Weston, Nailsea, Portishead and Clevedon. Subject to that investment and provision, Option 3 (removal of the airport area from the GB and the safeguarding of additional land) is supported.

Essential that any changes to the green belt/airport boundary are informed by robust evidence to ensure key ecological and landscape features on and off-site are identified and protected and that any off-site mitigation requirements are secured in accordance with the principles and priorities of the WoE GI Plan.

Assume that the proposals for growth at the Airport have been tested through the JSP, but would welcome further clarification on the detail of the assessment, the likely impact on the SRN and the scale and nature of any necessary mitigation.

Re p.80: The impact of transport on the natural environment (and landscape) should also be a consideration. Policy D2 under the Development and Transport Objectives within the adopted Mendip Hills AONB Management Plan 2014-2019 sets out ‘ensure that the special qualities of the AONB are fully respected in the planning, design, provision and management of all types of transport and associated infrastructure’.
