North Terminal Landside is a programme that has brought together 4 previously separate interdependent projects:

Scope of project:

• North Terminal Forecourt comprises the construction of a new forecourt on Northways (between MSCP 5 and Soffitel Hotel) and Furlong Way (adjacent to Jubilee House) in response to ASIAD security requirements
• North Terminal Interchange involves the construction of a new passenger interchange incorporating the existing North terminal ITTS station and MSCP’s 5 and 6 Customer Interface Areas to provide a direct route to and from the terminal at all levels.  This is a critical early part of project to coincide with reporting of ITTS.  Works start in June 2009 and should be completed by April 2010.
• Multi storey Car Park 6 is the construction of a new short stay MSCP 6 to provide approximately 1200 new spaces.  The project is due to start on site in March 2010 and be completed by March 2011
• North Terminal Extension is an extension both the south and east of the existing North Terminal to provide additional check in and baggage reclaim capacity.  The project starts on site in October 2009 and should be completed in September 2011.
