Battle for Heathrow’s third runway is set for take off! Airport unveils £49BILLION plans – but greens and mayor remain bitterly opposed
While Heathrow explains his designs for a third runway, a planning line was prepared today.
Britain’s largest airport, terminals and infrastructure, including the project can be built at a cost of approximately £ 49 billion in ten years.
Heathrow, if it is passed, will allow 30 new destinations to flights, add 0.43 percent to the UK’s GDP and carry 66 million more passengers a year.
However, he argues that he will confront a war with the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan, who violently against a third runway for noise and environmental reasons, and may start a legal challenge.
The extension will include the deflection of a part of the M25 from a tunnel running under the new runway and will mean a large redesign of the airport.
The presentation of plans comes in front of the government, which officially approves suggestions for a second runway in Gatwick in the next few weeks.
While the labor force tries to revive the UK’s sluggish economy with infrastructure projects, it points to the largest expansion of the UK airports for half a century. However, it will also revive a major order within the party and emphasize sharp divisions between those who want to grow and those who are worried about the environment.
Although the majority of MPs are likely to support the project if the majority of the deputies voted, Sir Keir Starmer and Cabinet ministers have previously voted against the Heathrow expansion.

Earlier this year, Ed Miliband, the Energy Safety Secretary and Net Zero, had to make a statement that would not leave the third track, given the previous opposition.
The legal challenges on political ranks and pollution first organized plans for a Heathrow expansion, which was brought up more than twenty years ago.
Plans will be reviewed by the Transportation Secretary Heidi Alexander before consulting the national policy statement of the airport. If a new runway is allowed, a complete planning application can be made in 2028.
The new runway will mean 276,000 new flights and 68 million more passengers per year. The rest of the planned budget would cost 21 billion £ paying to redesign the airport. The total number of flights will rise to 756,000 per year and carry 150 million passengers.
Heathrow CEO Thomas Woldbye said: ‘Expanding Heathrow has never been so important or urgent. We work effectively in capacity for the loss of trade and connection. ‘
Expansion will be financed by private investments, but it is concerned that the Airlines airport will increase passenger wages to pay for the project.
Business groups, ‘investment in the future of the country’ by saying that they welcomed the plans.
A joint statement from the British Industry Confederation, British Chambers of Commerce, Makeuk, Small Enterprises Federation and the Institute of Management said: ‘Benefits: It opens vital access to the main and developing markets for exporters; It improves global and local connection for visitors; And it unlocks billions of private investments for businesses, strengthens supply chains, develops business and develops skills throughout the country. ‘

However, green campaignists continue to oppose expansion, arguing that it is bad for the environment due to noise and air pollution.
Greenpeace UK Policy Director Dr. Douglas Parr said: ‘The government decided to give priority to more free time for a relatively small brochure group, and the rest of us have to live with the results of disproportionate pollution.’
Shadow Transport Secretary Richard Holden welcomed the announcement, but said it was vital to making the expansion correct.
“The role of the government is to ensure that the process protects taxpayers and guarantee the appropriate local consultation, since the process provides real benefits for the UK, for passengers’.
A rival expansion plan was also presented – the suggestion of the hotel king Surinder Arora contains a shorter third runway, which he claims to be cheaper and faster.
