Gatwick Plans For 2012 Olympics

Plans of how Gatwick is preparing for the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games are expected to be discussed at the airport next week. The Gatwick Airport Consultative Committee (GATCOM) will be meeting in the Ascot Suite in the Hilton Hotel on Thursday 22nd July at 2pm.

The public are welcome and there will be a varied agenda, including a discussion on pollution levels, which are reportedly coming down, and the air traffic over Horley. A spokesman for the committee stated that there would almost probably discussions concerning the Airports' investment programme.

Travellers passing through Gatwick can now enjoy its new state-of-the-art inter-terminal shuttle - two months ahead of schedule and in time for the four million passengers that are expected to travel through the summer months.

GATCOM is also expected to hear more about the new coalition Government’s stance on the industry, after ruling out the possibility of extra runways. A Task Force to look at airports in the South East was recently announced and GATCOM is waiting to see its terms of reference.

GATCOM is made up of 28 appointed representatives who collectively have a wide knowledge of relevant subjects including local authorities, civil aviation, community and environmental groups.

A Government representative is also present at the main GATCOM meetings, together with Gatwick Airport’s managing director and the senior management team.

The role of GATCOM includes building interest, communication and understanding between the airport and everyone who uses it.
