TAV and Arabtec will begin construction of Bahrains new $1.1bn airport terminal in October following completion of preparatory work.
The prep work, which began in February and includes demolition of old airport buildings, is in its final stages, Transportation and Telecommunication Minister Kamal Ahmed told Gulf Daily News.
Turkish airport construction specialist TAV Group is building the new terminal along with UAE-based contractor Arabtec. Benoy is designing the interiors as sub-consultant to project manager Hill International.
The upgrade will boost the capacity of Bahrain International Airport from nine to 14 million passengers per year when it opens in 2019.
The cost is being covered by the Abu Dhabi Fund for Development (ADFD).
