Feasibility study into North East Freight Connectivity

The North East Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP), in partnership with Newcastle International Airport (NIA), wish to appoint an appropriately qualified contractor to conduct a feasibility study to assess the potential for enhancing the air connectivity between Newcastle upon Tyne and our growth markets built around freight logistics. The feasibility study should explore the opportunities being driven by the pharmaceutical sector in the North East but should cover a wider range of sectors including manufacturing, advanced manufacturing, engineering, and technology.
