London City Airport pauses £500m expansion plan

London City Airport pauses £500m expansion plan

London City Airport has put its £500m expansion programme on hold due to a slump in demand during the Covid pandemic.

Construction will be paused at the end of this year when infrastructure work is completed on new aircraft stands, a full-length parallel taxiway and new passenger facilities.

The move will hit plans for extending the terminal and a new east pier.

Bam Nuttall is carrying out the infrastructure contract to prepare the site for expansion.
