RAF Molesworth is safe as U turn for closure

i kind of gathered a while back RAF Molesworth is not going anywhere so todays news its official that its here to stay. This is coinciding with the 95th RS moving across to Fairford and the 'Hall's future is hanging in the balance.

https://www.itv.com/news/anglia/2018...dgeshire-base/

Can anyone confirm any construction work is / has started at Spang to accomodate the 352nd, because I have heard sketchy stories

-Germans are not happy whatsoever about increase in movement from USAFE let alone night flying / low level flying by anything.
-Construction has not started and still in planning stages.
-Construction has started albeit very snails pace...

Likewise with the 100th supposedly moving across to Ram the issues so I hear
-Space on base (yes I know its x 3 of the 'Hall ) but still need dedicated areas to be constructed for AAR support...and they have already used extra land / knocked trees down for the building the new bigger regional medical facility as Landstuhl is old old.
-Again the locals will not be happy with increased flying

Cheers
