Responding to today’s High Court ruling on Gatwick Airport’s expansion plans, John Dickie, Chief Executive at BusinessLDN, said:
“This ruling marks another important step towards bringing Gatwick’s second runway into regular use and unlocking billions of pounds of private investment in the UK economy.
“The airport’s expansion will improve connectivity to overseas markets, support trade, boost inbound tourism and create thousands of jobs across London and the wider UK.
“As global competition for investment intensifies, expanding airport capacity is vital to maintaining London’s position as the best place in the world to do business.’’
