Access Engineering PLC, which says it is playing an important role in infrastructure development work carried out at the Mattala International Airport, has completed the construction of the Cargo and Fire Rescue Buildings, design and construction of the Airport Access Road, Supply and laying of external and internal water supply mains, construction of a Water Tower and the construction of an Aviation Fuel Hydrant System. The combined value of these projects amounts to over Rs 2 billion.

The company said this work was assigned to it by the main contractor, China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd. It said along with China Harbour, Access Engineering was given the responsibility of designing and constructing the access road to the airport.
The 2.5 km, 4 lane road consists of a 2 m wide central median, 3.2 m wide carriageways and 1.1m wide walkways on either side. The road followed a completely new trace which stretches through marshy areas that frequently remains flooded during rainy seasons. The designers from Access Engineering took up the challenge to provide a robust and economical solution to overcome this issue, the company statement added. “Expertise of our support services was utilized extensively and we even forayed into mechanical installation work such as the long span roofing structure, in-house.

We acquired and developed the expertise and specialized knowledge that is required to excel in this fiercely competitive sector of building construction by gearing up to meet the challenges and the changes in the economic climate that would open up many opportunities in the future,” noted Nihal Jayathilaka, Senior Project Manager of Access Engineering.
