£150m boost to transform Edinburgh Airport

[mhm]

This includes £25m for a "significant expansion" of the international airport's terminal building.

The 6,000 sq m facility will be built around a larger security area that will allow passengers to move through that part of the airport faster.

About 100 new construction jobs will be created during the building work.

There will also be new retail areas and a brand new airline business centre with offices.

Gordon Dewar, Edinburgh Airport chief executive, said: "Our expansion is a significant mark of our intent to transform our customers' experience of Edinburgh Airport through high-quality facilities, outstanding customer service and one of the best direct international route networks in Europe.
