Warning over 'deteriorating' Blackpool Airport control tower as new site hunt begins
Experts have been appointed to work out the best place for a new air traffic control tower at Blackpool Airport.
While some details of the plan remain under wraps, a council report says: “A replacement for the air traffic control facility at Blackpool Airport is required within the next few years in accordance with the approved Enterprise Zone delivery and masterplans to maximise future development potential.
“To enable the airport operational masterplan to be completed and the final design of proposed solar PV arrays at the airport, it is now necessary to identify potential locations for a new control tower which satisfy CAA safety and operational requirements.”
