AECOM Asia Pacific president Sean Chiao said: “The airport is an important symbol of any city, and we are extremely pleased to continue making the Hong Kong International Airport the pride of Hong Kong.

“We look forward to leveraging our connected expertise to deliver designs for this major project as well as the airport’s Terminal 2 Expansion for which we were awarded consultancy work earlier.”

HKIA noted that the new runway building will feature a courtyard at the centre with lush landscaping and will use natural light to create a better interior experience and views.

The use of natural light expects to reduce energy consumption and will increase the sustainability for the concourse of the airport.
