Building the future

Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport, the only gateway for air access, plays a strategic role in the economic development of the country. Conscious of the challenges awaiting us, Airports of Mauritius Co. Ltd has embarked on several development projects, which aim at increasing its operating capacity and enhancing its services.
In line with the government’s aspirations to welcome 2 million tourists by 2015, the construction of a new Passenger Terminal to the tune of Rs 11billion is scheduled to start by end of 2009. This new infrastructure has a handling capacity of 4 million passengers and its design is clearly focussed on delivering improved user’s experience, through an attractive and exciting journey for passengers and well-wishers/ welcomers.

Towards this end, AML is also working in close collaboration with the different airport and off-airport operators to ensure a coherent and harmonized development of the airport. Other projects in the pipeline include the construction of a second runway, the extension of existing taxiways on the airside, as well as additional parking facilities on the landside for airport users. Specific zones within the airport have also been identified for Cargo and Freeport activities and well as for the development of other commercial opportunities such as an integrated airport city.
