Hearing in regards to runway works.New runway final asphalt layer will be finished around 10 Oct in 1 month's time and final taxiway completions around Mid Dec this year.

Markings and lighting will then be commenced and from late Jan for the next 4 months links to the tower systems and runway calibrations will occur with a June-July 2020 opening.

The new runway will handle all Northern and Western movements such as GLT,ROK,TSV,CNS,ISA,Middle East,PNG,All Asia,Japan and China etc for both arrivals and departures .

Current runway will handle US,Pacific,NZ,SYD,MEL,ADL,CBR,PER etc for both arrivals and departures.
New runway will be closed from 11pm-6am each night .

On my flickr page there is a pic of new fire station being built.

The final layer of the runway which was Asphalt was completed last week and 90% of the concrete taxiways are now also finished.

Lighting and runway markings will start now and all works should be complete by years end then 4-6 months of testings with a June-July opening in 2020.
