CADP - London City Airport Consultative Committee

Development ProgrammeThe Airport TodayLondon City Airport is the UK’s leading business airport with 10 airlinesserving 43 destinations across the UK, Europe and the USA.The airport first started commercial flights in 1987 and this year London CityAirport’s 25th anniversary was marked by a visit from the Queen. LCY has alsorecently celebrated its millionth flight movement and was named ‘Best Airportin Europe’ (under five million passengers).The airport is key contributor to the economic success of London and the UK,generating over £500 million for the national economy each year and acting as acatalyst for the regeneration of the Docklands.There are over 2,100 people employed at London City Airport and 50 companiesare located on site. 26% of employees at the airport are Newham residents and58% are from East London.

Development ProgrammeOur Vision for the AirportThe initial CADP proposals on show here will help achieve growthup to the 120,000 flight movements LCY is permitted each year.Below is a timeline illustrating recent developments at the airportleading up the CADP:2006 - Airport Masterplan: the LCY 20-year vision began with theLondon City Airport 2006 Airport Masterplan, which was a startingpoint for looking at future options for growth at the airport2009 - Flight Movements permission: following consultation withlocal communities and other stakeholders, in 2009 the airportreceived permission to grow to 120,000 flight movements per year2011 - Airport Stand Replacement Project (ASRP): in 2011,proposals to reconfigure the airport’s aircraft parking stands toaccommodate the next generation of cleaner, quieter and moreenvironmentally-friendly aircraft were announced. A planningapplication was not submitted for the ASRP and the currentproposals are a natural evolution of these designs2013 - Western Pier investment: as part of the airport’s 25thanniversary celebrations in November an investment of £15 millionwas announced to improve the western side of the airport. Thisincludes refurbishing the western pier, the baggage reclaim areasand UK Border Control2014 and beyond - The City Airport Development Programme

Development ProgrammeThe Need to InvestIn 2011, London City Airport handled 70,000 scheduled aircraft movements andthree million passengers.Over the next 10 years, changes in the way the airline industry operates andthe introduction of new, larger, cleaner and quieter aircraft * mean that both flightmovements and passenger numbers are scheduled to grow.Larger Aircraft • More Passengers • More Peak Time MovementsIn addition, these passengers will continue to want to use the airport when we areat our most busy.In order to accommodate larger aircraft at the airport, a greater number ofpassengers per aircraft and more movements at peak times, there must beinvestment in improving the existing facilities.(*) Manufacturer’s estimates”

Development ProgrammeWhat Are We Proposing?A planning application is being prepared for works to improve existing airportinfrastructure. The designs are at a very early stage, but are likely to include:The next generation of planes are physically larger andNew Aircraft Standsand Pier Extensionwill not fit on most of the airport’s existing parking stands.Therefore it is necessary to enlarge the existing standsand extend the current pier to the east so that seven newstands can be accommodatedCurrently planes must travel along the runway in orderAn ExtendedParallel Taxi Laneto taxi for takeoff or to get to the terminal building. Anextended parallel taxi lane will allow planes to get ontoand off of the runway more quickly, making the runwaymore efficient.The extension to our existing terminal building willExtended TerminalBuildingcreate more space and amenities for passengers andstaff. Reconfigured baggage handling facilities, customsand security will enable the airport to handle projectedpassenger numbers.The CADP Masterplan

Development ProgrammeWhat Are We Proposing?As part of the extension to the terminal building, theReconfigured AirportEntrance/Forecourtentrance forecourt area is being configured to betteruse the space available. Taxi parking, vehicle drop-off/pick-up and bus services will be moved to the east of theircurrent location, where City Aviation House is currently.City Aviation House, our current office building would beNew Officesdemolished and office facilities moved into new officesbeside the existing terminal.Plans for a new hotel beside the remodelled airportHotelentrance forecourt are being drawn up. This would meet astrong demand for new hotel space in the local area.ReconfigurePassenger andStaff ParkingIn order to better use the space at the front of the airport,short and long term passenger parking, as well as staffparking, would be moved further east.We are also proposing various other essential works at theOtherairport, including a new fire station, emergency accesspoint and baggage processing area.• No increases in permitted flight movementsWhat is nothappening• No new runway and no extension to the existing one• No change in current environmental, operational or • • •• noise controls

Development ProgrammeWhat Could the ImprovedAirport Look Like?Below are some early stage artist’s impressions showing what the CADPproposals could look like. These are initial designs that are likely to change.Extended Terminal Building and New ForecourtThe Extended Pier From the SouthOverall CADP Improvements

Development ProgrammeA Considerate NeighbourThe CADP will not lead to an increase in flight movements at London City Airportbeyond that already planned and approved.The airport already operates in a strict regulatory environment, ensuring – amongsta number of things – that it adheres to stringent noise and emissions limits. Some ofthe checks include:• An independently monitored noisemanagement scheme, using specialistequipment to monitor the noise and flighttracks of departing aircraft. In addition, ourground monitoring programme ensures thataircraft create the minimum noise when on theground• Noise trials are undertaken in conjunctionChristmas at LCYwith the London Borough of Newham beforeany new aircraft types can commenceoperations at London City Airport. Only airlinesthat can demonstrate that their aircraft canoperate within strict noise limits are allowed• The London City Airport Sound InsulationScheme has the lowest daytime trigger level ofany airport in the UKCommunity Sport• The airport has a comprehensive Air QualityMonitoring Programme at sites in and aroundthe airport, to ensure that operations do notadversely affect the community• LCY funds the employment of an AirportMonitoring Officer at the London Boroughof Newham whose role is to ensure that theairport operations are fully compliant with ourlegal agreementsLCY Volunteers
