UK Transport Secretary: Heathrow third runway decision was 'unanimous'

UK's Secretary of State for Transport Chris Grayling stated (25-Oct-2016) it was "unanimously" agreed a third runway at London Heathrow Airport presented the strongest business case. Mr Grayling said, "I make no apologies for the fact that we have taken time to get it right, but today also shows that this is a government unafraid to take the difficult decisions and get on with the job". Mr Grayling reiterated Heathrow expansion will contribute GBP61 billion to the UK economy over 60 years. [more - original PR]
