Road access to the airport of El Prat de Llobregat has been at a complete standstill because more than three hundred vehicles coming from Gavà Mar and Castelldefels have carried out a protest driving at low speeds.

They marched past holding up posters and banners with the following slogans: "Stop the noise" or "No more planes, for our health and safety".

This protest was spontaneously organized by means of SMS messages, e-mails and conversations among neighbors.

All television channels and the written press covered the news: a complete success.

Minutes before the plenary session of the City Council started, about 300 neighbors met at Plaça de Jaume Balmes, right in front of the City Hall, to protest against the situation we have suffered since the third runway started operating.

During the meeting, Fernando Peña (vice-president of the AVV Gavà Mar) reported that “400 planes fly over the neighborhood every day, which entails serious danger and causes unbearable noise”.
