Jan 19, 2024 (newstodate): Tallinn Airport has now completed the project to develop the airport’s air side area.
Co-financed by the EU Cohesion Fund, the project to improve aviation safety, boost capacity and enhance the environmental condition of the airport was carried out between 2012 and 2023.
Among the key aspects of the project was the reconstruction and extension of the runway to 3,480m, together with the implementation of a new apron area and the establishment of a new taxiway network.
-The airside development project forms part of the broader vision of the airport’s future. We are planning to build aircraft servicing hangars and a cargo area on the southern side of the airport at some point in order to attract new companies, but also to leave the area around the passenger terminal free for the development of buildings designed to serve passengers, says Riivo Tuvike, Chairman of the management board of Tallinn Airport.
