Cairo International Airport Terminal Building 2 has undergone major expansion aimed
at doubling its annual passenger handling capacity to 7.5 million passengers. The USD
400 million project was financed by the World Bank.
With a built-up area of 228,000 m2, the project involved the demolition of the
existing building and construction of a new larger terminal, as well as construction of
new airside and landside pavements, with a pavement area exceeding 300,000 m2.
The terminal now operates at a baggage handling capacity of 3,000 bags/ hour, with
early baggage storage, seven baggage reclaim carrousels, 51 metal detectors, and 58
X-ray units. The terminal houses the latest airport technologies and systems.
ECG’s scope of work included airport planning, master- planning, complete design, and
construction management & supervision
