I would like to thank all stakeholders and community members who took the time to submit representations. Such participation is vital in helping the airport go beyond the requirements of best practice and legislation to mitigate and reduce noise impacts. By listening to local people, I believe we have been able to fi nd an appropriate balance between the social, economic and environmental realities of our operations. We look forward to working with the LLACC and our aviation community to deliver against the commitments set out in this document.

LONDON LUTON AIRPORT NOISE ACTION PAGE 6 In 2011 (which is the assessment year for this Noise Action Plan), London Luton Airport handled 9.5 million passengers. In addition to passenger activity, the airport is also an important international centre for business aviation, cargo and aircraft maintenance. London Luton Airport has one runway which is 2160m in length and has six main Noise Preferential Routes (NPRs), three departing in an easterly direction and three departing in a westerly direction. There are two arrival routes, one arriving from a westerly direction and one from the east. The closest residential areas to the airport are those located to the south and south-west of Luton but with more densely populated areas to the north and north-west. There are a number of small villages within relatively close proximity. Breachwood Green and Whitwell are located to the east and are predominantly affected by easterly departures and westerly arrivals. Residential areas to the west, such as Slip End, Caddington, Flamstead and Markyate are generally affected by easterly arrivals or westerly departures. In addition to aircraft noise originating from London Luton Airport, the surrounding areas are also affected to varying degrees by road traffi c noise, as well as overfl ights travelling to and from other UK airports.

  • PARISH PROFILE for ST PAUL's WALDEN with PRESTON
    PARISH PROFILE FOR ST PAUL’S WALDEN with PRESTON St Paul’s Walden with Preston Parish Profile 1 OVERVIEW The parishes of All Saints’, St. Paul’s Walden, and St. Martin’s, Preston are located in the beautiful North Hertfordshire countryside surrounding the villages of Whitwell and Preston. The villages are ideally located for commuting into London and around the South East, with a modern family-size vicarage in the village of Whitwell, next to the village primary school. Both villages have a flourishing community life with large numbers of groups and events, making up a community of diverse skills, occupations, interests and faiths. The incumbent will have Team Vicar status as part of the Hitchin Ministry Team, which provides a supportive, friendly and enthusiastic ministry to both Hitchin and these village parishes. The churches provide a focal point for the community, with many villagers having an association with the churches even if not attending regularly. Each church seeks to provide meaningful worship through a wide variety of services and events, aimed at all members of the community from residents of assisted living or care homes, to families and young children. We try to be creative, and are open to new ideas. Services such as Harvest, Lessons and Carols at Christmas, and Holiday clubs at Easter and the Summer attract many people, and we now seek to enable those who attend the festivals and Messy Church to be more engaged in an active part of the church family. Sunday school is offered most Sundays at All Saints,’ with a younger and older group offered if required.
