Representation ID: 22059
Received: 13/03/2020
Respondent: Norwich International Airport
Agent: Barton Willmore
6.2 Norwich Airport supports the delivery of the Norwich Western Link road and made
representations to Norfolk County Council in respect of the four potential route options in
February 2019. The Western Link is a critical infrastructure improvement that will help
facilitate this economic growth by increasing the Airport’s accessibility and connectivity.
6.3 As the Site connects directly onto Broadland Northway, the Western Link will connect it
to the A47 (towards King’s Lynn), reducing the number of vehicles using minor roads,
improving the economic growth of the Site and increasing its attractiveness as a strategic
employment location.
6.4 The Western Link Road should be prioritised for construction in the early period of GNLP.
