If you go to the Living Near The Airport part of the airport website this document shows what they are building. Work is progressing there at the moment - looks like they are putting down drainage etc at the moment. Going to be fun and games around there when they put that roundabout on the A538. On the plus side once done it ought to make turning right out of Sunbank Lane when coming from The Romper or the Viewing Park easier than it is now. It looks like there has been a change of plan around there - on previous diagrams I thought that they were planning on rerouting the A538 to the west, but as that would run right through the middle of the new buildings I guess that won't be happening now.

Accessed from the same page is also a PDF showing the new car parking to be built on the 23R final approach. Interesting that they are putting a small spotters car park in the SW corner, though it only looks to have space for about 2 cars judging by the size!
