PHOTOS: Belgrade Airport construction update
NEWS FLASH
Work on the expansion and modernisation of Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport is ongoing. The first phase of the extension of the C Pier of the terminal building, which began in 2020 and is to be completed by the end of the year, is in full swing. Jet bridges have now been installed on all eight new additional gates. The building also features five bus gates, which have all been completed. In addition, the extension of the C apron and F taxiway are ongoing. 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. Work has also begun on the existing C Pier, with gates C1 and C2 now closed for reconstruction. An additional floor will be built above them, which will ultimately separate arriving and departing passengers once it is fully completed above all 24 gates.
The renovation of the A Pier gates is nearing completion with gates A1 and A2 now in use, while A3 and A4 are expected to be completed soon. The departure gates have now received a refreshed look, with the bulk of the heavy work taking place above the stands where a new floor has been built.
Extensive work on the reconstruction of Terminal 2 and the construction of a central processor is now taking place. 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. Simultaneously, in order to allow the terminal to be expanded, the full reconfiguration of the access plateau is taking place. 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.
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 long-stay car park.
