Airport operators, government and local authorities are under increasing pressure to reduce overheads, meet more stringent security and safety guidelines, comply with regulatory requirements and maximise the return on high-value assets. They are also challenged with implementing an environmental policy to reduce noise and emissions.

Newcastle Airport Master Plan

The Defence and Airport Related Employment Zone made a significant contribution to the growth and development of the Hunter Region.

GHD prepared the land use development strategy for approximately 100 hectares of rural land for a specialised employment centre south of the Williamtown RAAF Base and Newcastle Airport. The project progressed from initial site selection through to development of the control framework.

Sharjah Airport Expansion

The proposed expansion and redevelopment of Sharjah International Airport is an exciting architectural opportunity. The project involves expansion of the transit area through the creation of three new gate lounges with new air bridges and increased access through the duty free area, transfer counters and cafeterias. The design also includes extension of the arrivals area (with an in-bound baggage system), arrivals concourse, customs areas, immigration pod, renovation and upgrade of driveways and substantial external landscaping. GHD was responsible for the total project solution, including:

Sunshine Coast Airport
