Name of Client: JSC Airports of Montenegro
Tivat Airport was built in 1971 and has a 4,050m2 single-storey passenger terminal, which was refurbished in 2006 and has limited retail facilities, a single runway of 2,500 meters and apron space for seven aircrafts and apron for general aviation of 12,012m2.
The capacity of the Airport is already insufficient to handle demand during the peak season in the summer, which limits the growth of the country’s tourism industry and leads to overcrowding and delays at the Airport. Moreover, the runway at the Airport does not currently comply with International Civil Aviation Organization’s (“ICAO”) safety requirements due to an insufficient safety zone at the end of the runway.
The Project will address both of these issues by more than doubling the handling capacity of the passenger terminal and adding aircraft stands that would provide sufficient handling capacity and improve service quality. Works would also be undertaken on the runway and the imperative relocation of a nearby road section (Tivat – Ostrovije) to achieve compliance with ICAO safety requirements.
The primary objectives of the assignment are:
