| Multiplex to expand Sydney Airport’s Eastern Terminal  Premier global contractor Multiplex has been appointed by Sydney Airport to deliver Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) works for Package 1 of Sydney Airport's $3B+ Eastern Expansion Program (EEP).Integrating the domestic and international airport terminals into a world-class precinct, the transformational project will support Sydney Airport's growth with passenger numbers forecast to grow from 42 million today to more than 72 million passengers annually by 2045. Unveiled as the cornerstone of Sydney Airport's Master Plan 2045, it represents the airport's largest overhaul since the 2000 Sydney Olympics. Under the ECI, Multiplex will work alongside Sydney Airport, Design Consultants Grimshaw and Mott MacDonald and its stakeholders to drive integrated planning and design, identify opportunities and manage risk in preparation for delivery of complex infrastructure in a live operational environment. According to Multiplex, key construction challenges will include delivery within a fully operational airport and complex stakeholder management amid strong regulatory requirements. The operational airport environment requires careful management of aviation operations, passenger movements, logistics, site access, safety and security. ECI works will commence in August 2026 with construction scheduled to start in 2027. Completion of the Sydney Airport EEP is expected in the early 2030s. write your comments about the article :: © 2026 Construction News :: home page |
