Projects include the installation of geo-exchange systems, expansion of the airport’s domestic and transborder terminals and construction of a parkade and central utilities building. Construction on a new international pier will begin in 2018.
Vancouver Airport Authority expects construction activities will create nearly 2,500 full-time construction jobs by the end of 2018.
