The battle over whether Bristol Airport should be allowed to expand or not is going to extra time after campaigners who have been fighting against the plans launched a legal challenge to the Government.
The local campaign group Bristol Airport Action Network has decided to appeal to the High Court against the Government planning inspector’s decision which allows the airport to expand.
The campaigners will claim in court there were a ‘number of errors in law’ made by the Government planning inspector, who earlier this year overturned a decision by local planners to refuse the airport’s expansion plans.
