Terminal development milestone
31.07.10
London City Airport held a 'topping-out' ceremony to mark the installation of the new first floor in the terminal building on Thursday. Airport chief executive Richard Gooding was joined by Kevin Murphy of ExCeL London for the event, 'an important milestone' in the £7m terminal development.
The works commenced in the spring with the installation of piles, steel columns and beams ahead of the fitting of the new floor. A new staircase and 6 additional security search lanes will be put in place in the second and third phases of the project, which is scheduled for completion early next year.
Mr Gooding said: 'The first floor topping out marks an important milestone in the terminal redevelopment works. Increasing the handling capacity of the security search area will maintain and uphold our high level of customer service and we look forward to completion.'
