Minister of Transport, Information Technology and Communications Ivaylo Moskovski has announced that a sum of nearly BGN 2 million will be invested in the expansion of Sofia Airport.
"Over the past few years, large airports in Bulgaria have been developing at a very good pace. A new control tower was opened at Sofia Airport, as well as a renovated runway at the Varna Airport, and the new terminals at the airports in Burgas and Varna will be opened in a few months' time," Moskovski stated.
Moskovski commented that the reconstruction and expansion of the passenger gallery of Sofia Airport's Terminal 2 was driven by the constantly growing number of passengers and the need for better and faster service.
In four months' time, Sofia Airport is to be equipped with 4 new exits, 3 for departure passengers and one for baggage claim.
The expansion of the passenger gallery at Terminal 2 of the Sofia Airport is to boost its capacity, servicing 200 000 passengers more a year. The project would be implemented by AT Engineering 2000, which had been selected through a public procurement procedure.
On the ground floor the area for reconstruction is 155 square meters. There will be four exists – three for departing passengers and one for receiving luggage.
On the next level the northernmost part of the gallery will be reconstructed and extended by 193 square meters. There will be additional staircases and elevators, which will be appropriate for physically challenged passengers. The project also envisages the construction of cafes, shops, and restaurants.
