Durham Tees Valley Airport (IATA: MME, ICAO: EGNV) is an airport in
North East England, located approximately 10 km (6 miles) east of Darlington,
about 16 km (10 miles) south west of Middlesbrough and 39 km (24 miles) south of
Durham. The airport serves County Durham, Darlington, Hartlepool, Middlesborough,
Redcar and Cleveland and parts of North Yorkshire.
Durham Tees Valley Airport is one of the UK's smaller airports, but offers links
to several domestic and European destinations. The airport has a CAA Public Use
Aerodrome Licence (number P518) that allows flights for the public transport of
passengers and for flying instruction.
Originally an RAF Station the airfield became Teesside International Airport in
the 1960s, and it was renamed in 2004 as Durham Tees Valley Airport. The
majority shareholder in the airport is Peel Airports Ltd who own 75%, while the
remaining 25% is owned by a consortium of local authorities, consisting of
Darlington, Stockton-on-Tees, Middlesbrough, Hartlepool and Redcar and Cleveland
Borough Councils.
On 21 September 2004 the airport was renamed Durham Tees Valley Airport as part
of a major redevelopment plan. The re-naming was unpopular with some local
residents.
The name was changed in order to better place the airport geographically, as
many of the airport's passengers, particularly those from outside the UK, were
unfamiliar with the location of Teesside, whilst Durham is better known.
In January 2005 a £56 million expansion and development programme was started
which to enable the airport to handle up to 3 million passengers annually. Phase
one of this development programme has already been completed and has seen the
construction of a new access road, as well as a completely new terminal front
and interior. Also the airfield lighting has been replaced.
In December 2006 Darlington and Stockton Borough Councils approved plans for the
first of two expansions for the airport.[4]
The plans include an extended and refurbished terminal, with improved baggage
handling and check-in facilities, lounges, office space and retail and
restaurant facilities. Also, a Cargo and Maintenance "village" is proposed along
with nine additional aircraft stands and 4,500 car parking spaces.
A second planning application has also been approved, for an 18,600sq metre
business park with a 100-bed hotel, public house and restaurant. Since these
plans were approved, the airport modified the application replacing the proposed
Cargo and Maintenance "village" with an Industrial Estate instead.
Building work for both of the above plans has yet to commence.
Plans for an 80-bedroom Hotel have been approved, however Durham Tees Valley
Airport opposes these plans as they were made by an outside company.
