The growing cargo traffic at Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport necessitated the construction of a dedicated cargo apron and the related service and warehouse buildings.
At runway II, a separate concrete-paved apron was built connected to taxiway Alpha, which can accommodate 2 ICAO F-category aircrafts (Boeing 747-8F) or 4 C-category aircrafts.
Asphalt shoulders have been built around the new pavements, and an asphalt pavement-structured service road and patrol road are also connected to the apron.
The apron is illuminated from 24-30 m high columns, which also accommodate a security camera system. A local transformer was installed to ensure power supply for the apron. The alignment of the external safety fence was also modified. To drain the area, a new ditch was created with a pollution measuring device (TOC).
During the project the following sectoral design works were completed:
- geodesy, geotechnical engineering
- airport design (pavement, markings)
- hydraulic engineering (rainwater drainage)
- high voltage power supply (airfield ground lighting, airfield signs, transformer station, primary and secondary cable network, floodlighting)
- low current (communications and security technology, camera system, telecommunications)
- organization
- structural engineering
