Glasgow Airport forecourt reopens
10.02.09
Busses and licensed airport taxis have been allowed to return to Glasgow Airport's inner forecourt for the first time since the terror attack in 2007. The relaxation of restrictions follows the installation of 300 security bollards, at a cost of £2 million, in front of the terminal. The move is a bid to increase public transport use from 11% to 15% by 2012.
Amanda McMillan, managing director at the airport, said the re-opening of the area was a 'return to normal'. She said: 'It will provide more transport choice for passengers. It is vital we continue to reduce congestion and promote public transport as a way of reducing surface transport emissions. By giving public transport vehicles access to the inner forecourt, we aim to significantly increase the number of passengers who travel to and from the airport by public transport.'
