Taking advantage of the dry season to speed up construction of Long Thanh airport
On March 4, according to the Vietnam Airports Corporation (ACV), the Long Thanh airport construction site is currently working hard, taking advantage of the dry season to accelerate the construction of various items. Nearly 4,000 domestic and international engineers and workers, along with about 2,000 machines and equipment, have been mobilized to serve the construction.
Human resources and machinery are mobilized in large numbers to construct items at the Long Thanh airport construction site.
Construction teams are also deployed to the maximum, working day and night continuously with the highest goal of speeding up progress.
Up to now, the consortium of domestic and international contractors has completed the internal works including construction of a modern operating building, laboratory, and material gathering area.
At the same time, establish construction site management boards, develop overall and detailed construction measures; work with local authorities to prepare conditions for long-term construction. Construction drawing design work is also deployed to have drawings to be constructed accordingly.
"All officers, engineers and workers at the construction site worked with a spirit of competition and determination, speeding up the completion of each task and item, ensuring quality, safety and closely following the set plan," said an ACV representative.
Workers construct steel parts at the Long Thanh airport passenger terminal construction site.
Of which, package 3.4 - leveling and drainage, the total actual excavation volume to date is 108,052/115,533 million m3 (reaching 93.52% of the total contract volume). The areas serving the construction of runways, taxiways, aircraft parking lots and the areas for the arrangement of component projects 1, 2, 4 have completed leveling since August 2023.
Similarly, for package 5.10 - passenger terminal, up to now, 24 tower cranes have been operating continuously day and night to meet all the lifting and moving of materials and equipment on the entire project site. In addition, at the construction site, the joint venture contractor has also mobilized 493 machines, equipment, materials and more than 2,200 personnel to carry out the construction work.
Up to now, the volume of excavated soil is 323,570m3, reaching 95%, 1,339 pile heads have been cut. In addition, the foundation construction (reinforcement, formwork, concrete) has reached 941 foundations...
It is expected that the entire construction will be completed before December 2025, and the facade installation will be completed before March 2026, in parallel with the completion and installation of test equipment from the beginning of 2026.
Machines and human resources are taking advantage of the dry season to speed up the progress of the Long Thanh airport project.
As for package 4.6 - runways, taxiways, and aircraft parking lots, the joint venture contractors have mobilized 641 personnel and 274 pieces of machinery and equipment to serve the construction. During Tet alone, the contractor still mobilized nearly 300 personnel to work on the construction site.
Total excavation volume to date has reached 883,088m3, earth filling has reached 691,339m3; K98 sand filling has reached 112,649m3. In addition, crushed stone construction has reached 8.68%, cement concrete construction has reached 2.53%.
The runway is expected to be completed before April 30, 2025, and the taxiway and apron system before June 2025.
Connecting roads are still waiting for the remaining land.
In particular, package 6.12 - T1, T2 traffic roads connecting the airport, 630 personnel, 196 machines and equipment were mobilized to deploy many construction teams. At this time, the K95 earth filling for the service road and main route has been completed. At the same time, crushed stone was spread and construction of service roads 1 and 2 was carried out. In addition, bored piles, soil cement piles, and some bridges on the route were also deployed.
Workers prepare for lunch break.
ACV said it has also requested the Dong Nai Provincial People's Committee to continue to speed up the handover of the connecting traffic route to deploy the connecting road to the airport. Because in reality, for the connecting traffic, ACV has only received the handover of about 86% of the land area for the 2 traffic routes.
It is known that the total value of payments and advances from the beginning of the project on March 4 reached more than 11.4 billion VND (11.62%).
Many items at Long Thanh airport have now taken shape, and machines are operating continuously.
According to Mr. Duong Quang Dien, Permanent Deputy Director of Long Thanh Airport Project Management Board, ACV has directed contractors to focus all their efforts, equipment, and work overtime day and night to increase the workload to complete the work. The field offices are always on duty 24/7 to urge and handle problems arising during the construction process.
Long Thanh Airport has a total investment of more than 336,000 billion VND, divided into 3 phases. In the first phase, the project will build a runway, a passenger terminal and ancillary items with a capacity of 25 million passengers per year, expected to be completed in 2025.
In phase two, Long Thanh airport will have an additional runway and terminal built to accommodate 50 million passengers per year, to be completed in 2035.
The remaining items will be completed in phase 3 so that the project can reach a capacity of 100 million passengers/year.
