Leeds Bradford Airport £100m Regeneration Programme

It made me chuckle when towards the end you hear someone say its like been in Dubai.

Of course, now, the problem is that everyone will want to get in the extension with a nice view and nobody will want to sit in the old part. Especially when parts of it look like a building site. So the new paper will be rammed, and the old part will be for shopping and a last resort for just sitting waiting.

As promised,





and one of the new stands


I think it is looking good!

It's actually starting to look like a proper airport, may the investments continue!

 

[Finger66]

Totally agree and if it wasn't a proper airport we wouldn't have the airlines and pax numbers we already have

Yes it has the look of an international airport but with a relaxing feel to it. The first pic with the wavy ceiling looks great, i like the style of the ceilings overall.
The drinking and eating places appear to be set back so that it gives a big open feel to the front where the main windows are looking out to the apron, all good!

@Seasider can you walk down the short pier, if so is that where the more standard seating is that's shown in one of your pictures?

 

[Seasider]

If you mean stands 9 - 12, I don't know. The doors to this area were locked, so didn't get the chance to have a look.

 

[LBAYORKIE]

The 2 new stands have been under construction for a while now. Do we know when they will be finished?

 

[SierraHotel]

I've heard rumours but no concrete evidence.

 

[gcoabc1]

Are you trying to cement your place in Forum history??

 

[SierraHotel]

I can't stand any more puns.

Just looking back through that video, can anyone explain what is behind the shutters in the arrivals corridor to the new immigration area? It looks like a closed retail unit?

It’s where the leader of the group who shouldn’t be mentioned is being held captive.

Its the access point for the common travel area that feeds you directly into the baggage reclaim area. There are smaller desks for the police check point.

I can’t actually believe they let her cut the tape. She has only ever been luke warm at best regarding the airport, until of course Labour got elected and the front bench realised they need transport infrastructure to fuel the economy and coffers. Oh and then Tracy and Rachel reeves did an about turn.

Not only that, but also attended by Leeds City Council (the very same that includes some within planning who are trying their best to block LBAs growth through a refusal to deal properly with the CLEUDs) and Bradford Council, who just sit there doing nothing positive relative to LBA.

I guess the airport couldn't find many that were worthy to cut the ribbon but these seem like a case of keeping your enemies close. At least they who shall not be named weren't there! Unless of course they were in disguise as a councillor?

 

[Len Fish]

We can expect cycle lanes and bus gates airside at LBA then.
