CONSTRUCTION will start on a $90 million carpark expansion project to for Brisbane Airport’s Domestic Terminal, as part of the $5 billion Future BNE transformation.
The extension will provide an additional 1,700 parking spaces for ParkLong customers at the Domestic Terminal.
“Since Covid we have seen an increased share of people wanting to drive to the airport,” said Martin Ryan, executive general manager commercial, Brisbane Airport.
“We continue to see the demand for parking grow as Brisbane’s population expands and we’re investing now to cater for current and future passenger needs.”
The additional car spaces are part of an extension to the current P2 car park and will involve the removal of the existing 30-minute free parking area and space for vehicles over 2.4m in height.
The expansion will see the closure of the current over height vehicle parking space from 25 March.
Future BNE encompasses more than 150 projects including upgrades to the Domestic and International Terminals, the construction of Terminal 3’s first stage, as well as additional commercial, industrial, and retail developments.
Construction on the car park extension will begin shortly with the project aiming to be completed by mid-2025.
