Major Step Forward for Heathrow's Third Runway

摘要

Plans for a new northwest runway at London's Heathrow Airport took a major step forward when the UK government recommended the scheme as part of its proposed airports national policy statement. The announcement was made in the House of Commons by Transport Secretary Chris Grayling on June 5. The proposal will now be voted on by MPs within the next month and if it's given the green light, the £14bn runway could be completed by 2026.
