Work has already begun on the new Eastern Apron built on the Old Terminal Building Car Park. I think the original plan was for three stands by next summer, but maybe that has now changed to two.
As far as I can see, plans are also in/work is underway for the following:
- Eastern walkway with 7 new coaching gates (around the area between stands 6 and 7N).
- Small extension to the F&B restaurant on the Eastern mezzanine level (I think slightly reducing the current external terrace)
- Adding two more floors to the new multi-story carpark
Fire Station
The new fire station is coming along quickly and is rather impressive. 6x garages as part of the large building, which sits between the snow base and the fire training area south of the runway.
Southside
- The stands Southside will be opposite the Centreline building basically filling in the V-shaped grass void. There will be three stands there but for now this will be for biz-jet/GA traffic and maybe standby/overflow parking. In adding this new apron, there will a change in the taxiways meaning additional Silverzone car parking as well.
- Also Southside the new Admin building is being built next to the A38 roundabout. This will take over from the OTB when demolished.
There will be a change in the layout of the roads on entering the Southside area as the new CRCC (Car Rental Consolidation Centre) is being built in the unprepared car parks near the southern threshold of RWY 27. This will be a collection of new buildings including the Reception Building (where at least 6 car hire companies will be based), a washing building, a cleaning building, maintenance bays and bus stops.
- Also on the Southside a new small staff waiting building has been erected on the site of the old Silverzone reception as all staff car parking has now moved from outside the OTB.
