The project consists of a programme of investments at the seven airports in Portugal owned and operated by ANA, primarily aimed at improving safety and service standards and alleviating specific operational and capacity constraints. The main investments are at the mainland airports of Oporto, Faro and Lisbon; the smaller investments are at the four airports which serve the islands in the Azores archipelago off the west coast of Portugal.
Objectives
All airports operated by ANA and included in the project fall within the airports Trans-European Network. In addition, all of the airports except Lisbon are either in a Convergence or, in the case of Faro airport, a Phasing-out region.
