Thus the case for T2 to solve overcrowding
The locals would disagree. Can’t see the existing terminal reaching capacity again for a while and I can’t see the airport operator paying for its expansion to 19million which was planned.

The Council were struggling to justify the £124m cost for the approach road to T2 which failed to get past the Council’s scrutiny committee, so the money has yet to be secured. With the Council facing ruin in part due to its reliance on its airport and the money it has thrown at it maybe the chickens are coming home to roost regarding LLAL debts and the interest payments due with next to no income. And who does the airport owe money to? Why the council and the best bit is that the Council had to borrow the money themselves.
