Bouhmala and Bouyacoub Group Wins Major Tangier Airport Expansion Contract
The group of architects led by Tarik Bouhmala and Abdelkrim Bouyacoub has been chosen to undertake the expansion of Tangier airport, a project commissioned by the National Airports Office (ONDA). This project encompasses the construction of a new passenger terminal and control tower at Tangier Ibn Batouta Airport.
The ONDA has outlined that the primary objective of the Tangier airport expansion is to furnish the airport hub with the necessary technological facilities and infrastructure to ensure seamless flight operations on-site.
In essence, the tender pertains to the construction of a passenger terminal spanning approximately 55,000 m2. The public competition encompasses a waiting and circulation area, a reception hall, connections to various modules, shops, and services, along with a ticket collection area for departing passengers.
Moreover, an inspection area is envisaged for screening prior to entry into the public concourse, facilitating access control for all terminal users. A check-in area is also integrated, featuring dedicated check-in desks for passengers and their baggage, as well as designated queuing areas.
