Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander said in a written statement that she was “minded to approve” the expansion, which would involve moderately moving Gatwick’s northern standby runway used for planes to taxi or as a backup.The original Gatwick project, which was rejected but then revised by planning inspectors, means that the final approval may be delayed by nine months.
Under the new plan, Gatwick will have to ensure at least 50% of passengers traveling to and from the airport do so by public transport and take steps to mitigate noise.
Gatwick, which is about 40 miles (65 kilometers) south of London and serves more than 40 million passengers a year, is the country’s busiest single-runway airport, and second-busiest overall behind London’s Heathrow Airport.Marvel Opara, who is partially sighted, attends a visually impaired tennis training session in London, Wednesday, May 14, 2025.
