Also known as - North Front Airport and RAF Gibraltar
Gibraltar Airport has a 4 lane highway passing directly through it. Winston Churchill Avenue is an arterial road that is the only road in and out of the British territory connecting it with Spain. The road intersects the runway of the Gibraltar Airport and there are movable barricades that close when aircraft land or take off. Due to this road and the extreme approaches from either side of the runway, the History Channel program Most Extreme Airports ranks it as the fifth most dangerous airport in the world.
