A third Heathrow runway has been given the go-ahead, the British government has confirmed.
Proposals to expand an existing runway at Heathrow or build a second runway at Gatwick were rejected
Britain’s Transport Secretary Chris Grayling said: “The step that Government is taking today is truly momentous.
“I am proud that after years of discussion and delay this Government is taking decisive action to secure the UK’s place in the global aviation market – securing jobs and business opportunities for the next decade and beyond.”
