New planning measure approved to help protect and preserve the infrastructure at Doncaster Sheffield Airport

City of Doncaster Council has approved a new planning measure which will help protect and preserve the infrastructure at Doncaster Sheffield Airport (DSA).

Subject to the ensuing call-in period for the decision, the demolition of any building at the airport will require planning permission to be granted permitting it.

The measure, known as an immediate Article 4 Direction, allows the council to remove certain rights which would otherwise be permitted without needing to apply for planning permission.

With an Article 4 Direction in place, any proposal to demolish a building at the airport – including the terminal, control tower and runway – will need to be assessed via the full planning process.

A joint statement from Mayors of Doncaster & South Yorkshire & Doncaster MPs regarding Doncaster Sheffield Airport said: “We are pleased that this step has been taken and we will collectively continue to fight for the airport.”
