Sep 05, 2012 (newstodate): Slovenia's Ljubljana Jose Pucnik Airport has opened a tender for construction of a new passenger terminal at the airport.
Interested parties parties now have 60 days to call concerning the construction project that is slated for immediate start and completion by January 15, 2014.
The projected works are crucial elements in ambitious plans to build the airport into an "Aeropolis".
The coming 31,200 sq m terminal will be designed to handling of 1,800 passengers per hour, replacing the existing terminal that has reached the ceiling of its capacity.
Further down the line in building up the new Aeropolis is construction of a new cargo terminal, also to be completed by 2015, as part of a new airport logistics center that will be gradually built up from 2013.
The ambition is to become a gateway between W and S/SE Europe, including the Balkan region, by attracting at least one international air cargo company, and the airport recently signed as partner to a JV with Air India that is expected to consider building up the airport as a future transfer hub for cargo.
