Airports

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.

In addition to enhancing the way assets are managed, a new holistic approach to delivering integrated aviation services is needed to improve operational performance, commercial opportunities and returns to stakeholders.

As the global industry evolves in response to economic, environmental and social drivers, it has never been more critical to deliver effective services and achieve maximum benefit on capital investment.

To address these challenges, GHD aviation solutions provides services underpinned by integrated transport strategies and aviation business knowledge. Our people combine technical skill with an intimate understanding of the aviation industry to address your challenges.

For over 30 years, GHD’s Airport Service Line has undertaken in excess of 150 projects across more than 60 airfields and airports around the globe.

From pavement inspections at remote rural airfields to design and construction management services for passenger terminals, and aircraft noise studies, GHD provides customer-centric aviation solutions that incorporate master planning, operational planning, asset management, security, environmental management and sustainability.

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

GHD completed a local environmental study before the land was re-zoned. Once developed, the Department of Defence and airport-related zone will make a significant contribution to the growth and development of the Hunter Region in New South Wales.
