Proposed terminal expansion

A bit more detail was outlined today in the BEP.

It seems there will still be a 3-star hotel and a 5-storey, 3,600 space, car park with a bus and car drop-off on the top storey linked to the terminal by a glass-walled corridor.

Aircraft stands will be increased by nine to thirty-three.

The consultation - to take place in January - will include public displays and presentations along with information in libraries and on Bristol Airport's website.

The planning submission is now not expected until March 2009.

The BEP's web edition carried comments from eleven people, nine of whom were in favour of the expansion.

Only a straw poll I know but it's another little clue that the SBAE (anti-expansionists) are really a minority viewpoint and not a very big minority at that.
