Gatwick Airport has today set out an ambitious vision for the future with the publication of its draft master plan, which looks at how the airport might grow in the longer term. The draft master plan is being announced to the airportโs independent consultative committee GATCOM which meets today.
As the UK enters a new chapter, Gatwickโs development will help meet future aviation demand with sustainable growth and ensure strong connections between Britain and global markets. It will also provide new opportunities for the South East and continue to bolster the local economy for future generations.
The publication of Gatwickโs draft master plan reflects Department for Transport guidance for airports to provide regular updates on their long-term plans, and responds to the Governmentโs recent call for airports to โmake best use of their existing runwaysโ.
Gatwick remains committed to sustainable growth in this draft master plan, building on our record which has seen the Carbon Trust naming Gatwick as the best performer for combined reduction of operational carbon, water and waste impacts in the past two years โ all while passenger numbers continued to grow.
