Would be fascinating to have a terminal extension live stream 24/7.

There is also some works ongoing to the car parks. The current premium short stay car park will become the meet and greet parking, switching with the current meet & great car park and consuming the short stay to increase capacity.

Yes whats the situation when it comes to road layout and parking, its something thats not really been mentioned on here, is there any plans to change things?

I believe a new exit will be created that leads to the current exit road from the Meet/Greet and Drop Off.

A second exterior car scanner will be placed in the new Meet & Greet car park and layout changes to the parking spaces.

It's a good point but is it necessary? The current layout was constructed by Bridgepoint around 2010? When it was built a terminal extension was planned for the front of the current building. The layout was built to sufficiently handle the passenger traffic of 7mppa.

Site is a lot tidier this week since piling has stopped/paused. Truckloads of earth continue to be moved from piles around the site towards the pax walkway to raise the ground level up to Apron level, shown by the red box.
Apologies, my ability to grab good photos is very limited.

You would be better using the media galley for things like this.

I had a look at the Media area but its still telling me I cannot upload any more media. Unless I'm not doing it right.

 

[Aviador]

Have you tried removing one of your old attachments?

 

[EX9]

I have deleted one of my previous attachments and added the second in the media area. The way I interpreted the above was that you get 5 attachments but more if added to the media gallery.

Piling commenced on new raised area today. Perhaps finished with earth buildup for now, with the last 2-3 feet to be sub-base and asphalt at a later stage?

Out of interest does anyone know if our batch of winds are causing any delays to current construction work? Seriously hoping for much improved weather through the rest of this winter not only to recover diversions but so there is no risk of delays to this terminal work. Would be a shame is max use wasn't in place until 2027? Is there any contingency built in to the current 2026 do we know?
