Posts: 9 A quick fix would be to construct one of those prefabricated tubular pier-type structures on stilts (as per the LHR Terminal one northern? pier - the on that goes up to about gate 76) out to the end of the main apron from the present white rose food court area. This could accomodate several departure gates with seating and jetways. It wouldn't win many design awards but would do the job

I would agree with bobleeds comments above, I beleive JETBLUE @JFK had this portacabin construction done as tempo while there new build was done around the infamous TWA building. I also have witnessed the building of a hospitlal extension built from this system with three double theatres and three wards. the portacabins came on low loaders from York and basically bolted totegther and clad round with 12months and running at the BRI, so tunnel with lighting and seats etc should be no problem ??. and the BRI was givern a 30 year life.
