People under Dublin Airport flight path raise concerns

People living under flight paths at Dublin Airport have revealed their daily nightmare as negotiations are planned on limiting the noise impact of a second runway.

Aviation chiefs have offered to buy 40 homes, believed to be in the St Margaret’s area 2km-3km from the airport, ahead of the planned €320m expansion in 2020.

While that deal is expected to stay on the table for a year, insulation, potentially involving triple glazed windows, will also be suggested for hundreds of other properties including schools.
