MANSTON AIRPORT PROPOSAL

Cllr Clive Hart - TDC Leader

The consultation on the proposed closure of Manston Airport is potentially a devastating blow to the local economy with the potential loss of direct and indirect employment in Thanet.

The council has been clear that it has supported the future development of the airport. We have worked with operators to ensure that the economic benefits to the district could be maximised including the council’s direct port of entry service and therefore this is very disappointing news.
