two runways in one

If it's OK to have an enormously long runway and use one half for landing and the other half for take-off (the "runway extension" proposal that's on the Airports Commission's shortlist), what would the prospects be for dividing one existing runway into 2 * 6000' runways and using them for aircraft of a suitable size?
