Minister expanded airports in the form of gatwic decisions

Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander has stated that the government “believes in an increase in the capacity of the airport”, as a time limit approach to approving the expansion of Gatwicks.

A decision at the end of this week is expected whether the airport in West Sussex can increase its operation to two with a runway working together.

Alexander said that the government “we can support all the sectors and increase the brake”.

He has a time limit of Thursday whether he has decided to approve Gatwick’s application, which can lead to 100,000 more flights in a year.

Gatvik wants to move its northern runway, which is currently used only for taxis or emergency conditions, and states that it can be complete and operated by the end of the decade.

This will cost an estimated £ 2.2bn and will be a private funded project.

Alexander also raised an extreme weather events of climate change.

She said that she did not want a world “destroyed”, but wanted a world where her niece and nephew do not deny the opportunity to travel.

Alexander said, “This government believes in increasing the capacity of the airport. We are ambitious for this field. But these strict norms should be met if we are to balance today’s needs with tomorrow’s needs. , “Alexander said.
