Athens International Airport has appointed Hill International to lead the project management office consortium, including Aecom and Salfo & Associates as partners, for the airport’s ongoing expansion programme.
The first phase now underway has a planned capital expenditure of $1.28bn.
It will increase the airport’s capacity from 26 million passengers a year now to 40 million by expanding the main and satellite terminal buildings and their respective apron areas.
This phase also includes a new apron on the North-West side of the airport, two services bridges, and a multi-storey car park for 3,300 vehicles.
Hill’s scope includes programme and project management, technical planning, design reviews, procurement and cost management, construction management and supervision.
“The expansion of Athens International Airport is a critical infrastructure project that will bolster Greece’s tourism sector and the overall economy,” said Hill Europe managing director Manolis Sigalas.
