Wonder to what extent Newquay, Exeter and Bristol evolve hereon with any further development?
I don't follow how the closure of PLH will affect the future of BRS in any way.
Even if BRS saw all the current PLH passenger traffic migrate to it (which of course it won't) the total would still be insignificant taking into account BRS's current annual passenger throughput of 5.7 million.
What is of more concern to BRS is whether its approved £150 million expansion that would enable it to handle up to 10 mppa will somehow be stopped by the eleventh-hour attempt of the objectors to obtain a judicial review to have the planning consent overturned.
Both sides seem confident of coming out on top in any judicial review but you can never be certain of any outcome when courts become involved.
