Morocco - The Third Airport Project

The 3rd airport project of Morocco is an important part of the investment programme of the National Airports Authority (ONDA) for the 2008-2012 period. This project mainly concerns the airports of Casablanca, Fez, Agadir, Marrakech and Rabat, which handle the bulk of air traffic to and from Morocco. Beyond the geographic area covered by these major development poles of the country, the project area covers the entire country, particularly as a result of a new air navigational system that will cover the entire Moroccan air space. Its cost constitutes 72% of the entire programme, and its implementation will cover a 5-year period (2009-2013). The project components concern: (i) extension and rehabilitation of terminal areas of airports concerned, including their installations, (ii) construction of infrastructure for these areas (lighting, aircraft parking areas, car parks, runway slip and access roads, etc.) and construction and installation works of the 2nd Regional Control Centre (RCC) in Agadir; (iii) supply and installation of various security and safety equipment and air navigation aid equipment in the various airports; and (iv) establishment of photovoltaic micro-power stations and an integrated wind farm to supply electricity in the various air terminals.
