The passenger terminal at the airport was opened in 1987. If approved, the CADP is expected to be completed in 2016. New facilities such as commercial offices, hotel, fire stations, baggage stations, and emergency access points are also part of the programme. The proposal will include extension of the terminal building, aircraft stands and piers, taxi lane, entrance and food court renovation. It will enable the existing facilities to be modernised without the need for building a new runway or expanding the existing runway.Ī planning application is expected to be submitted to the London Borough of Newham in 2013. The programme is aimed at improving the infrastructure at the airport. The airport is planning to undertake the City Airport Development Programme (CADP). Related works are expected to commence in early 2013. In November 2012, the airport announced a £15m investment plan which includes the refurbishment of the western piers along with the addition of new departure gates, enhancement of lounge facilities, improvement to baggage handling areas and renovation of the international arrivals hall. The terminal enhancement contract was awarded to AA Lovegrove and the project was managed by Atkins Design and Engineering. Another project worth £8m upgraded the security and passenger area during the same year.
The departure lounge and security search area were expanded as part of the work. Enhancement work worth £7m at the terminal was completed in February 2011.
