Opponents of Coventry Gateway scheme speak out
VILLAGERS campaigning against plans for a major development around Coventry Airport claim their research shows the scheme is flawed.
The Coventry and Warwickshire Development Partnership, a joint venture between Coventry Airport owners Rigby Family Holdings and Roxhill Properties, says its ‘Coventry Gateway’ scheme will create up to 14,000 new jobs at technology and distribution centres on land around the airport.
But a group of Bubbenhall, Baginton, Stoneleigh and Finham residents have researched the application and claim their findings, which they are presenting at Bubbenhall village hall on Tuesday at 7.30pm, show the plans are “flawed”.
The plans are due to go before the planning committees of Warwick District Council and Coventry City Council in December.
