Leeds Bradford International Airport releases details of its expansion as it reveals its long awaited masterplan. Is it enough to propel the Yorkshire airport into new hights or is it just another damp sqid? You decide.
Proposals included in the Masterplan include the following:
*New road link from the A65 near the Leeds ring road
*Improved terminal facilities
*Construction of a parallel taxiway
*New hotel and office development
*Increase short-term carpark spaces from 733 to 1,633
*Increase long-term carpark spaces from 2,100 to 5,100
*Increase the number of aircraft parking stands from 18 to 29
*A new landscape 'buffer' zone between Scotland Lane and the airport
*ferther studies into the feasability of a new rail-link beween Horsforth and the airport
Proposals to extend the runway are to be looked at again at a later date.
