Airport Masterplan 2035 LOW RES

Masterplan 2035
10.87 There are a number of key visual receptors which will
need to be closely considered in relation to our detailed
approach to future mitigation. Table 8 shows the main
developments proposed, their possible effect, and
potential mitigation we will look to implement.
10.88 A number of Public Rights of Way and other cycle and
pedestrian routes pass close to or traverse the Airport site.
We will seek to mitigate impact where possible through
screening; however delivering the Masterplan will require
diversion of routes in relation to the southside employment
sites and the runway extension. We will seek to redirect
and improve these routes in line with the legislated
process.
10.89 The Airport site is also within the Tyne and Wear Green
Belt. It is not strictly a landscape policy, but rather a
land use planning designation. However it is intended
to maintain openness. Therefore the development of
any building can impact on this. We believe that there
is sufficient land outside of the Green Belt to deliver
the Masterplan. However, we will closely evaluate all
development proposals against the purposes of the
Green Belt.
