A High Court judge has ruled that campaigners fighting to stop the expansion of Bristol Airport do have a case that should be heard - sending the battle to the courts later this year.
The campaign group Bristol Airport Action Network (BAAN) mounted a legal challenge against a decision by a Government planning inspector that Bristol Airport’s expansion project should go ahead.
And now the High Court judge has ruled that the campaign group has ‘raised arguable grounds which merit consideration by the court’ - sending the fight into extra time.
