Carlisle Airport Enhancements
Delivery of infrastructure necessary to facilitate the development of scheduled air services. The airport has suffered from a lack of investment which has meant missed opportunities to increase tourism and inward investment. The enhancements will include improvements to the airport’s runway including reprofiling the runway surface, alterations to runway drainage, the installation of new aerodrome ground lighting and resurfacing works to taxiways. Passenger terminal facilities and car parking facilities would also be improved. These improvements would open Cumbria up to more international visitors, a key
priority for maximising the potential of Cumbria’s tourism sector.

I don't know for certain, but would expect this to be match funding, and any funding for the building to be restricted to the terminal element - given that the office element is just moving people down the road (so displacement, not growth).
