An Entity of Type: agent, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Heathrow Hub is an independent proposal to expand capacity at London's Heathrow Airport, put forward by Jock Lowe, a former Concorde pilot, and Mark Bostock, an ex-director at Arup Group. The proposal was shortlisted in Sir Howard Davies' Airports Commission's interim report. Heathrow Hub proposes extending both of the existing runways up to a total length of about 7,000 metres and dividing them into four so that they each provide two, full length, runways, allowing simultaneous take-offs and landings. The aim is to complete the construction within five years and with 100% private funds.

  • Heathrow Hub is an independent proposal to expand capacity at London's Heathrow Airport, put forward by Jock Lowe, a former Concorde pilot, and Mark Bostock, an ex-director at Arup Group. The proposal was shortlisted in Sir Howard Davies' Airports Commission's interim report. Heathrow Hub proposes extending both of the existing runways up to a total length of about 7,000 metres and dividing them into four so that they each provide two, full length, runways, allowing simultaneous take-offs and landings. The aim is to complete the construction within five years and with 100% private funds. Available capacity would be doubled while keeping a percentage of the slots unused in order to alter noise levels. In addition, early morning flights could land much further west along the extended runways so reducing the noise footprint for a large area of west London. Other noise mitigation techniques include using two-stage approaches, and steeper, curved climb-outs. The Heathrow Hub concept includes a new multimodal air, rail and road interchange located approximately two miles north of Heathrow's Terminal 5 to accommodate passenger growth. This includes a new terminal, a new railway station connecting Heathrow to the West Coast Mainline and Crossrail and direct access to the M25 motorway. According to a paper published by the think-tank the Centre for Policy Studies, the Heathrow Hub proposal would cost ~£10 billion compared to the £65 billion estimated cost of the Thames Estuary Airport situated on the Isle of Grain and promoted by London Mayor Boris Johnson. Heathrow Hub estimates the cost of implementing its expansion plan to reach ~£12.5 billion, including road diversions and a train station. The commission estimates the cost to be around £13.5 billion; higher than HH's own estimate. The technical work for the proposal has been done by URS Corporation, an international engineering consultancy. (en)
  • 希思罗交通枢纽(英語:Heathrow Hub)是由前协和式客机飞行员乔克·洛威和奥雅纳集团前董事马克·博斯托克提案,旨在为希思罗机场扩能的计划。 该提案在霍华德戴维斯爵士的的中期施政报告中被列入候选名单。 希思罗枢纽提议将两条现有跑道的总长度延长至约七千米,并分为四段,使两条全长跑道可同时起降飞机。目标是在五年内不动用公款来完成建设。 届时希思罗机场的容量将增加一倍,同时将闲置机坪维持在一定比例以控制噪音。此外,晨间航班可能会沿着延长的跑道向西降落,使西伦敦免受飞机噪音之苦。其他降噪手段包括两级式降落和螺旋爬升。 希思罗交通枢纽概念包括在希思罗机场五号航站楼以北约2英里处新建一个公铁民航联运中心以适应旅客量的成长。这包括一个新航站楼、一个连接希思罗机场和西海岸干线和横贯铁路的新火车站,以及直通M25高速公路的联络线。 根据智囊团发表的一篇论文,希思罗交通枢纽的提议将耗资约100亿英镑,而位于并由前伦敦市长鲍里斯·约翰逊推动的泰晤士河口机场的估计成本为650亿英镑。希思罗交通枢纽预计扩建成本约为125亿英镑(包括道路改线和新建车站)。委员会预计建设成本约为135亿英镑(高于希思罗交通枢纽建设方的预计)。 该提案的技术工作由国际工程咨询公司URS Corporation完成。 (zh)
