11th August: Today Antonio Sevilla, the Regional Minister for public works, visited the new International airport at Corvera to inspect progress as the structure of the new airport nears completion.
The works are visibly considerably more advanced than during the last inspection visit in June and Sr Sevilla is confident that the structural work of building and fitting out the airport will be completed by the end of this year.
Since the last visit, works to build the runway and external perimeter road have advanced noticeably, the monumental piles of hardcore having disappeared altogether and been laid as the core structure of these two important elements comes together, a considerable advancement compared to the last inspection when earthmoving works were still underway.
The external aircraft hard stand has all been poured bar the disembarcation line, which has been prepared for finishing.
What was a series of foundations has become a vast concrete plinth on which the planes can park for loading and unloading, a considerable task which has now been completed.
