The plans revealed in this consultation include the consolidated feedback received in the Airspace and Future operations consultation that concluded in March, and previous consultations last year.<\/p>\n<h3>The upcoming Heathrow expansion consultation will seek feedback on four key areas:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Heathrow\u2019s preferred masterplan for expansion;<\/li>\n<li>Plans to operate the future airport;<\/li>\n<li>Assessment of impacts of the airport\u2019s growth;<\/li>\n<li>Plans to manage the impacts of expansion.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Emma Gilthorpe, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.heathrow.com\/\">Heathrow\u2019s<\/a> executive director for expansion, said: \u201cHeathrow\u2019s expansion is a project of huge national and local significance, and it is critical to our country\u2019s economic growth. An expanded hub airport will allow the country to access more of the world, create thousands of jobs locally and nationally and it will open up new trading routes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut we can\u2019t deliver these plans alone. We urge everyone to have their say in this consultation, to shape our plans, and to help us deliver expansion in the fairest and most sustainable way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Following the conclusion of this consultation, Heathrow will submit a final proposal to the Planning Inspectorate in 2020.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Heathrow has announced\u00a0that its statutory 12 and a half-week consultation on its expansion plans will launch on 18 June.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[304],"tags":[676,946,579,952,649],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-57014","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-planning-construction-news","8":"tag-heathrow","9":"tag-infrastructure","10":"tag-planning","11":"tag-planning-applications"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Date set for statutory consultation on Heathrow expansion<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Heathrow has announced\u00a0that its statutory 12 and a half-week consultation on its Heathrow expansion plans will launch on 18 June\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/consultation-heathrow-expansion\/57014\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Date set for statutory consultation on Heathrow expansion\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Heathrow has announced\u00a0that its statutory 12 and a half-week consultation on its expansion plans will launch on 18 June\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/consultation-heathrow-expansion\/57014\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
