Airport to reveal expansion plans
30.10.08
Proposals for a £28m revamp and extension of the terminal at Leeds Bradford Airport will be discussed in a series of open meetings before the submission of a planning application to Leeds City Council. The initial plans are part of a £70m development package at the airport.
A report to a council committee next week reveals that the proposals will provide internal improvements to the existing terminal and a new two-storey extension. Changes will be made to the immigration area to provide a larger queuing area, more desks and support offices, and an enlarged security search facility. The re-organisation of the domestic baggage reclaim hall will increase space and improve space for the coach gate hold room.
The two-storey extension will give around 4600 sqm of accommodation, of which 2300 sqm will be provided at ground-floor level to improve the concourse, check-in and security facilities, and 2300 sqm at first-floor level to provide a departure lounge and retail link.
