construction work at Birmingham airport

hi all,

anyone know where they are working on the airport site? we are to start delivering tarmac next week, and i just wondered where abouts we are going, it must be airside, because of all the security check that are being done.

I do believe that work is also set to start on the approach roads into the airport with a new PERMANENT layout….

From what I’ve seen passing through on various airlines this last couple of weeks…

Taxiway Delta is currently dug up between D1 and D2 meaning that a/c have to taxi via A6-E7-D3 or vice versa. Also taxiway Delta is dug up between D4 and D5 meaning a/c from/to W and Y stands have to go via taxiway E.

The official appropriate notams are (those I refer to above in bold):

AGA : Q)EGTT/QMXLC/IV/M/A/000/999/5227N00145W005
