The RSP proposal to reopen the former Manston Airport as a 24/7 International cargo hub has complied with the preliminary procedures to enable it to go forward to an Examination in Public. This does not imply that there is some form of official approval for the substance of the proposal, for which there is not, but it does give local residents the opportunity to make their concerns known to the Planning Inspectorate at the Public Inquiry.
Persons or organisations wishing to make their views known have until 8 October to register their interest with The Planning Inspectorate. (PINS.)
The Ramsgate Society is intending to register and will do so citing a number of key reasons why we are opposed to RSP’s proposals. These will centre around the potentially disastrous impact that 24/7 operations at the airport will have on the historic fabric of the town and the quality of life for its residents.

Every September some 40,000 volunteers across England organise 5,000 events to celebrate our fantastic history and culture. It's your chance to see hidden places and try out new experiences – all of which are free to explore. This year there are ten events taking place in Ramsgate, celebrating the rich history and heritage of the town. This includes costumed walks guiding you round Ramsgate, and a chance to see inside the Italianate Glasshouse.
The Heritage Open Day events will take place this and next weekend - from 6th - 9th and from 13th -16th September.
