Sites for Rotor Stations—Some Town Planning Considerations
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 October 2023
Extract
The previous speaker has briefly stated the requirements which for satisfactory operation of a helicopter service should govern the siting of a Rotor Station they may be summarised as—commercially “a central location in the town, with convenient access by road and rail”, and—operationally “relative freedom from local ‘smog’ and from high obstructions”
It is probable that the travelling public also would describe their chief requirement as “a central location and convenient road and rail access”, but when the question of siting is viewed disinterestedly—as it must be by the town planning authority—when account is taken of the probable effect that the Rotor Station, its use and its situation, may have upon the public in general, and on the owners and occupiers of adjacent property in particular—a rather different set of criteria must be considered
