Goodwin Sands lines up as new hub airport

摘要

Marine engineering specialist consultant Beckett Rankine this week set out a new multi-billion pound vision for a high capacity hub airport on the Goodwin Sands 3km off the east Kent coast at Deal. The first ￡39.2bn stage of the three phase so-called "hub for Northern Europe" plan would see a new three runway airport built with dedicated high speed rail, road and ferry links, which would provide capacity for 150M passengers a year.
