Bristol Airport has welcomed a court decision that will allow expansion of the south-west English hub.

The ruling in favour of the government and against the Bristol Airport Action Network means the airport can go ahead with plans to increase capacity from 10 million to 12 million passengers a year.

“We will now take forward our multi-million-pound plans for net zero operations by 2030 and look forward to working with stakeholders and the community to deliver responsible growth,” the airport said in a statement.
