 8000t of  high specification Marshall Asphalt surfacing,

New AGL (Above Ground Lighting) to include F900 spec. pits, ducting & Luminaires,

In addition to agreed daytime working periods, runway possessions will be granted 5 nights per week & all works will be delivered whilst maintaining Gatwick’s demanding flight schedule. The works will demand incredibly high standards of safety & security, required for working in this “ultra live” Airside environment.

We look forward to fully embracing Gatwick Airport’s “Destination Zero” Programme.
