MP says ‘forget Boris Island, expand Birmingham’
24.01.12
The Government should forget plans for a new ‘Boris Island’ airport in the Thames Estuary and expand Birmingham Airport instead, the Post reports that Solihull MP Lorely Burt has said. Ms Burt (Lib Dem, Solihull) criticised proposals for a new airport in the Thames to cope with increased demand for air travel.
Ms Burt said Birmingham could become Britain’s new national airport, with plans to expand the runway and the proposed high speed rail line, which will cut journey times from London to Birmingham to less than 50 minutes, already in place.
