Construction of the $4.6 million upgrade to Devonport Airport has begun, and is due for completion by the end of the year.  The upgrade will involve a major terminal refurbishment, as well as improved amenitites, security screening and luggage check-in facilities.

 

Local company, Stubbs Constructions Pty Ltd, is performing the upgrade, which will support the jobs of up to 20 staff and sub-contractors during the six month project.

 

“Devonport Airport is growing strongly – both in its popularity with passengers and its economic importance to the north-west,” State Minister for Infrastructure David O’Byrne said.
