Client: Lagan Construction Limited
Contract Period: March 2012 to date
Country: States of Guernsey
Total Contract Value: Ongoing

In early 2012, work began on a major programme of essential maintenance and improvements that will equip Guernsey Airport to continue serving the island for the next 30 years. This is known as the Airport2040 project. This represents the largest development in the airport’s 73-year history, and one of the most wide-ranging and complex construction projects ever undertaken locally.

Gill Civil Engineering’s involvement will be the construction of new apron areas, longer safety areas and improvements to the drainage systems. The contract is expected to take two years to complete, with up to 150 staff involved working around the clock to enable the airfield to remain operational whilst the essential works are carried out.
