Overview

• Four fire engines and about 25 London Fire Brigade firefighters responded to the Terminal 3 multi‑storey car park.
• The fire was under control by 10:06am after first calls around 9:03–9:04am, according to officials.
• Heathrow says the car park has reopened after a temporary closure, and the rest of the airport remained open.
• The main tunnel to Terminals 1–3 and the M4 spur from J4 were closed during the response, with drivers directed to M4 J3 or M25 J14.
• Arriva’s 724 bus service was rerouted to start and terminate at Terminal 5, and the cause remains unconfirmed despite unverified reports of an electric vehicle.
