Today sees the launch of Beckett Rankine’s answer to the current need for a new, larger capacity hub airport in south-east England.
The Goodwin Sands, which lie just 1.8 miles (3KM) off the east coast of Kent, are being proposed as the site for the new hub airport needed for London. The site comfortably provides space for four or more runways, has excellent transport links and unlike the other solutions currently under consideration, offers 24-hour operations as take-off and landing will be over water.
Tim Beckett said: “The location of an airport offshore is an alternative that crowded island nations are turning to across the globe. We believe that an offshore hub airport is the only option that can realistically provide the four new, independent runways that research reveals London needs”.
