PROPOSALS to build two new terminals at Heathrow are being considered

documents have revealed, writes Jonathon Carr-Brown.

Maybe someone should publish these 'hidden' plans then.

Or come up with a viable alternative.


Developing Stansted into a 4 runway airport with a high speed train
connection (south, north and sast) and closing LHR completely.


Hey! Why Stansted? Why not Luton - much better placed for the transport
links. Run a rail spur Stevenage - Luton - Leighton Buzzard and you've got
the WCML, MML and ECML all linked in. If the Oxford - Cambridge line comes
back to life, there's an easy link to the GWML too.

I know that the locals won't like this, but there are far less of them.


How about this airport on an artificial island in the Thames estuary,
then? Even fewer NIMBYs!



THINK OF ALL THE SEAGULLS!!!!
