Residents respond to long-awaited Brisbane Airport flight noise report
A new report has revealed several major changes to reduce aircraft noise over Brisbane suburbs, after months of campaigning from fired up locals.
It includes maximising flights over water, noise sharing and stronger governance frame works.
I know this has been a major point of contention for many people living in the South East who are sick of hearing constant planes flying over.
The 66-page report has a number of changes recommended over four key areas including stronger governance and communications around airspace changes needing to be enhanced, looking at maximising flights over water and Moretan Bay, noise sharing and changes to the structure of the wider airspace.
Dr Marcus Foth, the acting chair of the Brisbane Flight Path Community Alliance told Jason Dasey on Brisbane Live they are still asking for a number of measures.
He said they continue to demand a curfew and flight cap.
