25/06/2018 “The stamp of approval from MPs for Heathrow expansion is a vital further step – but there now needs to be an independent process to determine who can best deliver each element of the expansion. Arora’s plans to deliver the full extra capacity via a Westerly campus deliver significant cost savings and break the current monopoly, which overcharges airlines and passengers. Costs must be kept down for the expansion to work and Heathrow’s track record should be a cause for concern.”

05/06/2018: It’s excellent that the Government has backed the Heathrow Northwest Runway expansion scheme. While Mr Grayling’s comments indicated that HAL are “currently the only credible promoter” of the expansion project “in entirety”, we’re pleased to see the Airports NPS specifically avoids identifying any statutory undertaker as the appropriate person/s to carry out the preferred scheme, and in particular that the NPS reiterates the option for different components (such as the terminal) to be dealt with by different parties.

As such, the Arora Group remains committed to the expansion of Heathrow and will engage constructively with all relevant bodies to support the delivery of an expanded, world-class hub airport.
