Shaped by decades of analysis and years of engagement.
In 2019, Heathrow held a public consultation on our expansion plans. The feedback we received has helped shape our proposals. We remain in the pre-application phase of the Development Consent Order (DCO) process, as we were in 2020.
We’ll soon invite views on our latest proposals for Heathrow expansion. From 27 October, you’ll be able to explore the proposals, access the consultation materials and share your views on this page.
For more information about the upcoming consultation, read our latest update.
Heathrow expansion will increase capacity, lower air fares and unlock routes that will benefit the whole of the UK.
We are committed to being a good neighbour and take our responsibilities to local communities and residents seriously.
As part of the proposed changes, we’ll reroute part of the M25, including building a new tunnel and bridges, while keeping motorists moving. We’ll aim to maintain traffic flow and minimise disruption during construction, with changes introduced in phases where needed.
