8 Anchor projects

Auckland Airport has eight core infrastructure projects that will transform our precinct and anchor our 30-year vision to build an airport of the future, improving the way New Zealanders connect with each other and the world.

In the financial year 2019 we were pleased to commence two of these projects – our airfield expansion and the Northern Network roading project – while progressing others from feasibility through to design stage.
