Two more runways for Jo'burg Intl.?
Hi there, it seems as if the ACSA plans to build two more runways at Johannesburg Intl. to meet growth plans for 2020 (40 million passengers). Although I think the airport could cope with three runways, plans are underway, while residents of Bonaero Park fear they will loose a big bunch of money. The whole part of the suburb south of Marco Polo Drive will have to be bought by ACSA and home owners fear they will only get low prices for their properties. One of the new runways will be 03R I heard. Cheers, Felix
