Summary sheet
ENTE PUBLICO DE AEROPUERTOS ESPAÑOLES Y NAVEGACIÓN AÉREA (AENA)
The project consists of a number of improvements to upgrade the Galician airports of A Coruña and Vigo in northwest Spain, both owned and operated by Aeropuertos Españoles y Navegación Aérea (AENA). The investments are primarily aimed at achieving full compliance with international safety recommendations as required by the State Agency for Aviation Security (AESA) under the new certification process of Spanish airports. The improvements comprise strip widening, obstacle removal and taxiway and strip re-profiling. The project also includes the expansion of the passenger terminal building at A Coruña.
The investments are primarily aimed at providing capacity for further growth, alleviating specific operational constraints and improving safety and service in order to achieve full compliance with international safety recommendations.
The components would normally be classified under Annex II, leaving to the competent authority the decision whether an EIA is required or not. This will be further reviewed and confirmed during appraisal.
The Promoter is subject to EU Procurement Directive 2004/17/EC and follows the relevant national legislation, which incorporates that directive. The Promoter’s Procurement Plan will be reviewed during appraisal.
