Full length available for 27L departures, NOTAM active for no landings. All landings on 27R, I am led to believe that IF 27R closes, such as tyre burst etc, then 27L is available for visual approaches only, but not an immediate change, due WIP at the threshold and runway edges.
09L/R hold no restrictions.

27L re-opended for departures ( post incident ) about 17:00hrs after distances were declared and checked by BAA and CAA. My ops dept reported flow control at slightly better than cat3 conditions so not too bad after all.
