NEWS FLASH
Work on the expansion and modernisation of Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport is ongoing at several locations across the airport complex.
Preparatory work for the relocation of Terminal 1 facilities are in progress, which is to be followed by extensive work on the reconstruction of Terminal 2 and the construction of a central processor. The project is being implemented in phases, which is set to completely change the appearance and customer experience at Nikola Tesla Airport. The first phase of the work is being performed on the ground floor, near the check-in counters, as well as on the first floor, prior to the passport control area. The construction of the central processor will allow for additional check-in counters, more commercial premises as well as centralised security screening that will then be performed at one point, rather than the gates, so as to provide added comfort and more efficient passenger flow, in compliance with global standards.
Preparatory work on the modernisation of access roads and the construction of new car parks are underway, as well as additional construction and reorganisation of road lanes and the full reconfiguration of the access plateau in front of the passenger terminal building. This project will allow faster access and more efficient traffic flow, as well as increased short-term parking capacity. A new modern car park for visitors, with a capacity for 715 vehicles, is to be built and will include premium parking spaces, parking positions for those with reduced mobility, as well as electric car chargers. The completed long-stay car park with the capacity to welcome 1.500 vehicles is expected to be opened in the coming period.
The first phase of the extension of C Pier of the terminal building, which began in 2020, is in full swing. In this phase the pier will boast eight additional gates equipped with passenger boarding bridges, five bus gates and an additional roof corridor for arriving passengers. One of the greatest novelties will be the separation of departing and arriving passengers. Simultaneously, the extension of the C apron and F taxiway is also planned. Seven new aircraft stands are planned for narrow-body aircraft, with the option to use two stands for one wide-body aircraft, which will improve airport capacity and provide a connection to the new de-icing platform.
The reconstruction of the A Pier gates is also progressing with gates A1 to A4 currently being remodelled with the addition of a roof corridor.
A number of other projects are also underway, including the construction of the new control tower, inserted runway, de-icing platform, energy plant and solar plant. So far, the new E platform has been completed and is already being used by commercial aircraft for parking, as well as the airside energy plant and the abovementioned long-stay car park.
