Spelthorne Council, member of 2M group backs third runway
22.02.07With just six days to go before the end of the Government Consultation into adding capacity at heathrow airport, Spelthorne Council, one of the 2M group of 12 councils around Heathrow who have campaigned consistently against expansion at Heathrow, voted in favour of building a third runway at the airport.
