Centralny Port Komunikacyjny has signed a contract with Budimex S.A. for the passenger terminal construction work of Poland’s new national airport.
The works will commence in September, starting with the installation of the terminal’s foundations. The contract is valued at nearly PLN 146 million. Dariusz Klimczak, Minister of Infrastructure said: “Having completed the preparation and design stages, we are now moving into the construction phase. Foundation works for the terminal, including deep piling, will begin this autumn. This will mark the symbolic start of the construction of a new state-of-the-art airport, which will be built between Łódź and Warsaw and will be one of the most advanced airports in Europe.
“From the Ministry of Infrastructure’s perspective, the key priority at the outset of this project was to ensure close coordination between the Ministry and the management of the company responsible for delivering the Port Polska programme.”
“As planned, Centralny Port Komunikacyjny, the company implementing the Port Polska investment programme, will be ready to begin the first construction works at the new airport site in September. This will represent the symbolic beginning of the airport’s construction,” said Dr. Filip Czernicki, Port Polska, CEO of Centralny Port Komunikacyjny.
It will still be necessary to obtain a building permit from the Mazovian Voivode and formally take possession of the required plots of land. The airport will be capable of handling more than 300,000 aircraft movements annually and will feature two independent runways.
