The Heathrow West proposal delivers squarely on the Secretary of State\u2019s and Chancellor\u2019s ambition to obtain planning permission by the end of this Parliament, with a fully operational runway by 2035.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Arora Group has a proven track record of delivering on time and on budget projects including in and around Heathrow Airport. We are delighted that the Government has taken a common sense approach to invite proposals from all interested parties for the very first time rather than granting exclusivity to the current airport operator, no matter its track record.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want the UK to succeed. To do this, the UK Government\u2019s Plan for Change needs to succeed and we want to play our part in order to make this happen. Our project will generate employment and skills training opportunities across every region of the UK.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_153695\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-153695\" style=\"width: 696px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-153695 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Heathrow-West-by-the-Arora-Group-3-1024x663.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"451\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Heathrow-West-by-the-Arora-Group-3-1024x663.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Heathrow-West-by-the-Arora-Group-3-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Heathrow-West-by-the-Arora-Group-3-768x497.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Heathrow-West-by-the-Arora-Group-3-1536x994.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Heathrow-West-by-the-Arora-Group-3-2048x1326.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Heathrow-West-by-the-Arora-Group-3-649x420.jpg 649w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Heathrow-West-by-the-Arora-Group-3-696x451.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Heathrow-West-by-the-Arora-Group-3-1068x691.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Heathrow-West-by-the-Arora-Group-3-1920x1243.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Heathrow-West-by-the-Arora-Group-3-610x395.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Heathrow-West-by-the-Arora-Group-3-scaled.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-153695\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image courtesy of Arora Group<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Carlton Brown, CEO of Heathrow West, said: \u201cThe setting up of a wholly owned and dedicated business to an expanded Heathrow will enable us to dedicate the time and focus needed with a wide range of stakeholders, not least airlines, communities and business.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHeathrow West will have a Board that comprises members with proven track records in governance, finance, construction, aviation and sustainability.
