The terminal expansion project at Newcastle Airport in Australia is progressing rapidly with the crown of the building, a vaulted roof and structural steel installations the current work focus.
Airport CEO, Dr Peter Cock, said it was exciting to see the superstructure taking shape on this iconic building and was looking forward to seeing it come alive next year.
“I want to thank the Federal Government for critical funding support and HJO [Hunter Joint Organisation] for their unwavering alignment and advocacy of this important initiative for the greater Hunter Region,” he enthused.
On track for completion mid-2025, the terminal expansion is a critical step towards achieving Newcastle Airport’s aim to be the airport the region deserves.
With the terminal concrete structure almost complete, the immediate focus is on the structural steel installation and impressive vaulted roof.
Previously a significant amount of work has been completed on key structural and underground baggage tunnels and now we are moving towards lockup stage with doors, windows and glass facade by the end of the year.
