Heathrow airport has given dozens of sites hoping to become one of the four off site logistic hubs just over eight weeks to come up with reasons why they should be chosen. In all, 65 sites are competing for the work to help build the west London airport's third runway, with the contenders due to send in their pre-qualif ication questionnaires by 18 January. The airport said a shortlist would be drawn up next spring and added: "Each of the 65 sites offer their own unique elements to the project, from their location, transport links, local skills and supply chain, size, regional expertise and business plans. These are just some of the considerations Heathrow's expansion team will make when deciding which sites will make the final four."
