UK to announce Heathrow expansion project


(MENAFN) UK's government's long-awaited decision on airport expansion is set to be announced, with Heathrow the favorite.

In detail, Transport Secretary Chris Grayling will make a statement to Parliament around lunchtime on Tuesday.

But the decision faces a long consultation before it becomes final.

A study last year, led by Sir Howard Davies, recommended a third runway at Heathrow but other options include a new runway at Gatwick or extending one of Heathrow's existing runways.
