At the start of the week, theAdera filed a appeal against the Beauvais airport operating contract. With this procedure, the airport residents’ association hopes for the cancellation of the site’s operating contract by the Bellova company, which brings together Egis, Bouygues and the Serena investment fund. Contacted, the administrative court of Amiens confirms having been requested for this appeal.
For Adera “the main criticisms target the impact on climate change and health“. What they were already denouncing before the transfer of power between Sageb and Bellova. According to local residents, the airport manager’s project is in no way a “reasoned development», contrary to what the company defends. Anthony Martin, its president, had mentioned a 20% increase in the number of planes which should be reached by 2035. That is 45,000 movements per year for 7.5 million passengers. Without information on this appeal, the company did not wish to comment.
Upcoming public actions
The residents’ association does not intend to stop there. In a press release, it recalls that to develop, the airport will have to carry out environmental studies and obtain planning permission. “We will be present to study and respond to them», Promises Adera. She also states that “there will certainly be public actions to come“.
