Disruption to operations and passenger experience is one of the most overlooked and often costly issues associated with #airportdevelopment, and has caused problems for many leading airports around the world.? Director and Head of Aviation Maurice Rosario recently joined London Build to explore how?we can futureproof the design of airports to reduce carbon associated with future development, while ensuring operational resilience and a consistent passenger experience.?

Yesterday was a great day at the UK Airport Infrastructure Forum, featuring insightful presentations from our speakers and engaging conversations with our attendees. Key themes include: Unlocking greater capacity – Airports revealed their expansion plans as passenger demand exceeds pre-pandemic numbers. Luton Rising is expecting a decision on their planning application to extend their terminal infrastructure on 4 October, while Leeds Bradford Airport aims to carry out a ￡100m development plan with phase 1 delivered in May 2025 and Phase 2 in Mid-2026. Reducing carbon emissions during development – London Gatwick shared how they are improving sustainability while bringing the existing Northern Runway into routine use. Mark Edwards, Head of Sustainability, outlined the steps included in their ￡250m decarbonisation programme, he is confident that Gatwick Airport will achieve Net Zero for GHG emissions by 2030. Leveraging current infrastructure – Ensuring future growth through maximising the potential of existing runways remains a major challenge for airports with space constraints. Heathrow Airport provided key insight on the work they are doing to transition from a ‘David Star’ layout to a ‘Toast Rack’ configuration which will allow them to increase capacity. A final thank you to our speakers and attendees for their valuable contributions. What were your key takeaways from the event? #AirportInfra24

Come in, air traffic control! Terrific investment from Bristol Airport as they are set to pump ￡3.5 million into the maintenance of their air traffic control tower. This is looking to be a worthy injection of funds into the maintenance of their internal infrastructure and a comprehensive six-month refurbishment of the large-towered structure. It will not only upgrade many features of the building into the future but, will incorporate a host of environmentally friendly elements such as energy-efficient lighting, heating and cooling systems reducing the building’s carbon footprint - eco-conscious investments are on the rise! Cannot wait to see the result of this project and all else associated with Bristol Airport’s overall multi-million-pound transformational development plan enabling 12 million passengers a year to use the airport in the near future. #airportinnovation #airtrafficcontrol #sustainablebusiness

Key Fundamentals of Airport Masterplans ?? An airport masterplan serves as a vision of how the potential development of an airport could be realised. Although a masterplan is developed in the initial stages of airport development, it must account for crucial key factors, such as traffic type and demand forecasts, Economic factors, and investment requirements. These elements are essential for ensuring that the Airport long-term business plan is adhered to. A comprehensive and structured masterplan will ensure the successful phased development of an airport, whilst maintaining operational flexibility and efficiency, and minimising the risk of facilities being poorly located or inadequately sized, resulting in restricted overall airport capacity.

Airports are not the only infrastructure growth needs within the US. The combination of the Infrastructure and Jobs Act in 2021, the post-COVID return to normal for individuals and the economy and the need to maintain decades-old infrastructure requiring constant investment all contribute towards the strong municipal new issue market in 2024. Bear in mind that it takes time for officials to determine what projects are needed, to scope out the details and to eventually borrow monies to fund the project. We are in the heart of the period that the boost from the initial Jobs Act announcement should spur such opportunities... and we are seeing the fruits of these efforts, especially in airport projects.

Since 2021 New Plymouth Airport has been achieving Level 2 (reduction) of the internationally recognised Airport Carbon Accreditation Programme. ???? This program, consisting of seven levels, acknowledges our commitment to managing and reducing carbon emissions. This year will see continued efforts along with new plans to start the Optimisation stage as we look to focus on Level 3. #CarbonManagement #SustainabilityGoals

Global airport construction and investment have shifted dramatically post-pandemic, with investment in both new and existing airports nearly halved. While many expected a recovery, challenges like the Ukraine invasion and global economic strain continue to impact the industry. This first part of our mid-2024 report delves into the current state of airport infrastructure in Asia Pacific and Europe, highlighting the increased focus on operational resilience, affordability, new technologies, and sustainability. How are airports adapting to these new realities? Read more: https://bit.ly/3SjnIZ7

?? Now boarding: Major upgrade work is ramping up for Toronto Pearson Airport. Here's what you need to know: ? The Greater Toronto Airports Authority has begun the first phase of procurement for its LIFT program which will see billions of dollars spent on airport upgrades over the next decade and beyond. ? The first phase of a procurement process included an industry forum for 700 participants from design, construction, and technology industry companies. ? The initial program of LIFT will focus on modernizing airport assets, including high speed taxi lanes to improve airfield performance, modernized airfield electric lighting and control system, interim terminal facilities, and investments in power generation to advance towards net-zero targets.
