BIA Master Plan assigned to Dutch firm
Haskoning DHV Nederland B.V, a Dutch consulting engineering firm, has been appointed to draft the master plan for the expansion project of the Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA).
This master plan will concentrate on planning the future of the airport, taking into account capacity, efficiency, and passenger experience to ensure that it is able to accommodate more passenger traffic and meet Sri Lanka’s tourism objectives.
The Airport and Aviation Services Ltd had cancelled the earlier contract awarded some time ago for not following proper procedure, an official said.
However the ongoing BIA Phase II Stage 2- Package A1 project is not affected by this new development in the Japan-funded expansion project.
This project, including the new terminal (Package A), is funded by JICA and aims to boost Sri Lanka’s aviation capacity. The Dutch company will be responsible for completing the construction of the new terminal building, piers, and associated works as part of the BIA Phase II project.
The tender for the construction of Phase 11 of the BIA project in 2025 was marred by controversy and delays, with one international bidder, a foreign consortium, facing disqualification.
