" . http://www.flightlevel350.com/download.php?id=5006 NEW BARAJAS ( T1,T2,T3,T4,T4S): 940,000 square meters (10 Million sq feets) TERMINAL AREA 18,000 Passengers/hour 70 Millions passengers year Nominal capacity . 120 Operations/hour 104 JETBRIDGES 21, 800 parking slots By comparison London Heathrow 360,000 sq meters , Atlanta (Terminal Area plus Concourses T, A, B, C, D, and E) 530,000 sq meters MAD it's biggest Terminal Area in the world. Because of a political disput between the new central goverment and the regional Madrid goverment , the extension of the actual metro line to Terminal 2 to T4 , hasn't been made . The proyect is finalized and recently the contract has been awarded , and paid , by Madrid regional goverment , instead the central goverment that it's the airport's owner .. In any case extension from T2 to new T4 will be finished before next year May 2007 local elections. New T4 already have the metro station constructed . The photos of the Slide don't correspond to this metro station inside T4 , but of the APM (Automatic Peoples Moves) that connects underground T4 with T4 Satellite building . Bombardier url regarding Madrid Barajas Proyect http://www.bombardier.com/en/1_0/1_2/1_2_2_1_3_12.jsp This is Phase 1 of the proyect . Phase 2 will expand the APM to another satellite building under proyect APM-INTRA , runs the 2.100 meters between stations in T4 and T4Satellite in less than 3 minutes , at 60 Km/hour . 13,000 passenger hour ( 6,500 per direction ) ,by means of 6 trains of 3 CX-100 every one . More trains can be added to transport more than 20,000 passenger hour . An APM train departs for a given station every 2 minutes at peak hours . It's operational 24 hours day , 7 days a week . The APM is Driverless . In Google Earth images of Madrid Barajas still can be seen the underground way ,from T4 to T4S , and the underground line to the future extra satellite building . Another metro line will link Madrid North Station Chamartin with T4 ..AVE station still is under study , but Nothing decided yet. Until metro reach T4 in 1 year , free shuttle buses link metro station at barajas town to T4 in 10 minutes . Also free shuttle inter-terminal busses conecct all terminals T1-T2-T3-T4 Giving the spectacular Madrid Barajas growth , proyect ENAM (Estudio Nuevo Aeropuerto Madrid) was realized . Still confidential , apparently land have been reserved near Ocaña ,where several High Speed Train Lines mix ( Madrid-Sevilla , Madrid-Valencia ) . Other pre-eliminary studies are public http://www.fundicot.org/grupo%202/aerodromo.PDF In the study the expert reconmed to put the new airport where several HSL mix , and re-balance urbanistically Central Spain |
