The Vice President opened the new terminal at Hargeisa Airport today; the project began in 2010 and involved lengthening the existing runway, constructing a taxiway, an apron and a new terminal that can now handle more passengers than before.
“This new phase will include the construction of a 1 KM and 700m parallel taxiway, which will be funded by UNDP, cargo apron and associated facilities,” the Vice President said.
The projects are funded by China and the UNDP respectively.
