跑道施工

Brisbane’s New Runway is not just a runway project.  It is about doubling Brisbane Airport's airfield and all associated facilities.  

Construction includes:

1. A new runway 3.3kms long, 60m wide, topped with asphalt
2. 12km of taxiways, topped with concrete
3. Many kilometres of airside roads, drains, airfield lighting and signage
4. Navigation aids, including an Instrument Landing System (ILS) and high intensity approach lighting system (HIAL) at both ends of the runway
5. 300ha of landscaping to cover all non-paved areas of the airfield and
6. A four-lane underpass structure linking the Domestic Terminal precinct and the airport's northern facilities  

Work to prepare the site began in 2012. The final major stages of construction to build the runway, taxiways and airfield got underway in 2017 as the ground transformation works had performed according to plan. Construction is in on track for the runway to open in 2020.
