Contract awarded for Farnborough Airport hangar

McLaughlin & Harvey has won the contract to design and build a new hangar at Farnborough Airport.

Representing the largest infrastructure project at the airport this century, work is due to start in the coming weeks while the facility remains fully operational.

McLaughlin & Harvey Construction Director, Douglas McCusker, commented, “We are proud to have been selected as design and build partner for the construction of the new hangar facilities.

“We will draw on our previous experience of working in a live airport environment, to ensure that construction doesn’t impact the day-to-day activities at Farnborough Airport.”

The development at the airport – named Europe’s best Fixed-Based Operator (FBO) since 2005 – will increase the hangar space available to clients with the construction of an additional large span steel portal building with high specification concrete floors, associated airport apron works and hangar doors.
