The point is to significantly increase the capacity of T2, to be able to take some of the pressure off of the other terminals.
T2 was the only sensible option for expansion, with respect to not unduly affecting operations during the works. It's a phased build, with the new section of the terminal to be constructed before they renovate the existing.
