I knew I had seen it recently, from the March 2023 Planning Portal DCO submission.
Don't need anything at Eastern end until that date because it is already in approved plans to aid 25 departure flow & 07 arrival flow.....
"This plan depicts the anticipated layout of the airport upon completion of works approved under extant Town and Country Planning Act permissions and permitted development rights. This differs from the current layout of the airport"
Phase 1 afterwards - new 4 pack + larger runup bay overflow.
Phase 2a - besides T2, extra quick exit from 25 and full backtrack relief for 07.
Phase 2b - extra fast exit 07 arrivals and full length taxiway to the 25 threshold end + T2 second pier
