Olympic terminal roof lifted into place

20 Mar 12 A carefully planned four-crane lift by Hewden has positioned the prefabricated roof of the temporary ‘pop up’ terminal being built at Heathrow Airport for the exclusive use of Olympic competitors leaving London after the Games.

The roof of the white marquee-like structure weighed in at 20 tonnes.

The terminal will be used for just three days after the 12 August closing ceremony. More than 10,000 competitors are expected to pass through it. It will then be taken down and the site returned to being a staff car park.
