Bristol Airport Opens £9.5m Multi-Storey Car Park

North Somerset Council leader Nigel Ashton unveiled a plaque to mark the development’s completion, which opened to the public in May.

The new airport car park has more than 1,100 spaces across three levels and is situated within a short walking distance of the terminal, with two additional floors providing an extra 750 spaces to be added in winter.’

‘Goldbeck Construction built the facility, which features enhanced parking bay technology, helping drivers to easily locate empty spaces.

The development follows recent improvements elsewhere across the site in the past year, including a £2.5million customer reception centre in the silver zone car park and a £2.3million upgrade to the immigration hall.’

‘Work on a second multi-storey car park, featuring a public transport interchange on the top level, will commence next year and is expected to open in 2021, adding nearly 2,000 more spaces.

Plans for a third multi-storey car park will be included in a forthcoming planning application, with the airport’s expansion scheme seeking to increase its annual passenger numbers to about 12 million per year.’
