APRON PROJECT
From November 2024 to July 2025, we will carry out a near-full reconstruction of the apron to ensure a safe, high-quality environment for airport operators and passengers now and in the future. The apron is nearing the end of its life, and requires replacement to safeguard current and future airport operations.
The apron will be rebuilt in six stages, including replacement of an old concrete stormwater drain.
There are likely to be changes to carparking and pedestrian access to the terminal, as well as to passengers’ boarding and disembarking experience while construction takes place. We appreciate your patience and understanding for the temporary disruption. You can read more about the project in our media release.
Airport Perimeter Walkway - Partial Closure
A 1.4 kilometre section of the walkway is closed to the public while the works take place. This is an essential safety measure while a large volume of construction traffic is using the road to access the work site and transport materials.
The P180 carpark prior to the airport entry barrier arms is also closed for the duration of the works. A pedestrian/cyclist corridor will be maintained through this carpark to accommodate those that walk/cycle across the Jenkins Creek bridge to access the airport precinct.
The map below shows the closed area in red.
Construction Staging Overview
The work will take place in six stages, moving from south to north.
