Christine.. I visit the Worton Road area of Isleworth almost daily..and I also travel all over the Borough. Last week Mogden stank awful. Thankfully ,I was only nearby 15 minutes. I couldn't wait to drive off. Some people have lived there for 25 years and more...perhaps before the Mogden excesses. Whilst your arguement about people moving into the area of say Isleworth or Chiswick..should be finding out about their disquietning environment before they moved in ..you must remember that many people have lived in the area for 50years, 60 years and more. And in my case 67 yrs! Mogden is a disgrace. The night flights into Heathrow are a disgrace too. Over Isleworth 5600 flights travel overhead with their heavy loads between 4.30am and 6am. Mrs Keen is hailing the recent decision to NOT INCREASE the number to 6300 as a victory! We're looking for a reduction. It's a con. The report about the Heathrow Night Flights farce in this week's Brentford and Chiswick Times was a disgrace too. Chris Briddon's article reporting of the matter on page 5 was out of order. It lacked statistics. It just praised Mr and Mrs Keens' hard work!! (With respects to Ruth Cadbury who had to do her solid efforts too). I lived in Chiswick for nearly 27 years..until the mid 1960's..and that included much time before the M4/A4 was built. The increasing noise of the traffic was never accompanied with noise barriers say backing on to Wolseley Gardens or Harvard Road,Churchfield Court, or Sutton Lane, or the back of Barrowgate Road, etc etc. Your arguement seems to be that people should just lump it. Yes, some social housing has been built close to some of these disagreeable spots. But you can't really tell people living near Mogden to lump it. Do you live near it? |
