Heathrow Runway Alterations from September

Posted by admin | Posted in Heathrow, UK | Posted on 09-08-2010

London Heathrow Airport will have runway and taxiway work taking place from 13 September 2010, and is expected to take six weeks to complete.

During this time, normal daytime operations will be affected. When arrivals are from the west (over London), only the southern runway will be used for arrivals, and the northern runway for departures. They will not switch at 3pm as usual.

Whilst this will no doubt cause a lack of noise respite for those living under the flightpath, it is also something for spotters to note when planning where to spot at Heathrow.
