A new report, published by the Centre for Policy Studies, sets out proposals for “Heathrow Hub”, an integrated air and rail facility which would nearly double slot capacity at Heathrow while also mitigating noise and environmental concerns. It involves: extending both of the existing runways up to a total length of about 7,000 metres and dividing them so that they each provide two, full-length, runways, allowing simultaneous take-offs and landings; and, providing a new transport interchange immediately north of Terminal 5, directly connecting the airport with the M25 motorway, Crossrail, the Great Western Main Line and, as an option, an alternative HS2 route via the airport (should the HS2 project proceed).

The Mayor of London submitted his response to the Davies Commission’s discussion paper on Airport Operational Models.

The European Commission has launched a consultation process to invite Member States, other institutions and stakeholders to provide feedback on the revised draft guidelines on State aid to airports and airlines. These revised draft guidelines take stock of the new legal and economic situation concerning the public financing of airports and airlines and specify under which conditions such public financing constitute or not State aid under the meaning of Article 107 (1) of the Treaty, and when it constitutes State aid, under which conditions it can be declared compatible with the internal market. The Commission’s assessment is based on its experience and decision practice, as well as on its analysis of current market conditions in the airport and aviation sectors. Comments are requested by 25 September 2013.
