Heathrow reconstruction starts

BAA has signed a £800m contract for the new Terminal 2 which will become the home of Star Alliance with a 20m passenger capacity.  When construction is finished in 2014 the facility will be one of the most modern in the world.  There will be direct access to the Heathrow bus terminus and the train stations.  Contractor for the project is HETCo, a joint venture between Ferrovial Agroman and Laing O'Rourke.  When complete, the new terminal will encompass a floor space of 185,000m2 covering the sites of both Terminal 2 and the Queen’s Building.  The building will be extended into the existing Terminal 1 site in phases. www.baa.com
