Thames Estuary Airport (proposed)
The Thames Estuary Airport is a proposed project to build a new, large airport in the Thames Estuary area east of London. Designed to ease congestion at Heathrow and other airports, it aims to serve as a major international hub with modern facilities. The plan involves constructing a new island runway or an airport on existing land, offering improved airline capacity and transport links. However, it is still in the planning stage, with considerations around environmental impact, costs, and logistics under discussion. The proposal aims to support economic growth while balancing local and ecological concerns.
