Such construction programmes morph over time and planned outcomes can change due to many reasons. However, I'd be very surprised if an airport's principal customers - the airlines - are not closely involved with requirements and monitoring progress, if not forcing/agreeing change at certain times. After all, they will be the ones using it.
