Airport Development

RPS has been advising on airport developments since it provided environmental planning evidence to the Roskill Commission in 1970. RPS has advised on planning and environmental assessment matters on some of the most challenging airport development projects ever since, including work over many years for BAA Plc on the development of Heathrow Terminal 5 and most recently on the planning and environmental assessment of the proposed Stansted Generation 2 airport development. From initial masterplanning through detailed designs, to efficient maintenance regimes, the RPS specialist airports architecture and civil engineering team is also at the cutting edge of design ideas, construction techniques and airfield technology. Our dedicated design team works with airport operators and owners to develop valuable assets, airside and landside, creating robust, value-managed solutions.
