New Aircraft Apron Location

Filton Airport has started a programme of works which will comprise:  

  • resurfacing taxiway ALPHA and BRAVO
  • creating a new Apron (Between existing Aprons 3 and 4)
  • upgrading ground communications equipment. 
The main work will be carried out in a number of phases with taxiways and aprons being closed to ensure safe operation of aircraft at all times.  Work is planned to be complete by end of September 2008 with a new airfield boundary fence positioned immediately on completion.  The new apron is expected to be operational by end of October 2008.
