Heathrow's GBP 2.3 billion major investment towards the future of the England

Heathrow's GBP 2.3 billion major investment towards the future of the England

Investment is set to accelerate the airport's decarbonization ambitions, improve the passenger experience and create new opportunities for businesses across the country. Heathrow CEO Thomas Woldbye stated: “Heathrow is not only the UK's gateway to the world, it is also the center of the country's growth. The investment plan we are announcing today will help us deliver a better experience for our passengers and make a strong contribution to the national economy. We will continue to deliver more than GBP 1 billion of private sector investment in our airport every year.”

Building Terminal 5 required 18,500 tons of steel, while the air traffic control tower required 1,100 tons. The planned expansion now has the potential to strengthen the industry and boost local employment by using more UK steel. According to UK Steel, the use of UK-made steel in Heathrow extension projects could make a significant contribution to both the economy and the industry. The company believes that these investments not only strengthen the country's infrastructure, but also offer a unique opportunity to boost the local economy by revitalizing steel producing regions.
