BAA
believes that a point-blank refusal by the Government to look into
building a new runway would be a breach of ‘proper process’, say company
sources.
The firm has consulted lawyers and believes it has a good case to get the Government to consider the expansion.
It believes there is a precedent for the Government to change its mind as two councils successfully mounted a judicial review in 2002 against Labour’s refusal to consider the case for expanding Gatwick airport.
David Cameron and Transport Secretary Justine Greening are insisting that all options – a new island airport in the Thames estuary and extra runways at Stansted and Gatwick – are legitimate subjects for discussion, but a third runway at Heathrow has been ruled out.
No flights will leave from the Games Terminal. Instead athletes and games officials will go through check-in and security there before being taken by bus to their departure terminals.
BAA has said it expects 13 August to be among the busiest the airport has ever experienced.
Nick Cole, head of Olympic and Paralympic planning at Heathrow, said: "I am delighted to take over the Games Terminal, which will help us meet the challenge of record numbers of passengers and bags that we are expecting on the days after the closing ceremony."
The new Olympics Terminal has been officially handed over to Heathrow Airport's operators, BAA.
The temporary structure, put up in a staff car park, will cater for athletes and officials involved with London 2012 and be used for the three days after the closing ceremony on 12 August before being decommissioned.
