Changi Airport will close Runway 2 from October 25, 2020, for the next phase of infrastructure work that is part of the Changi East project. The airport will use Runways 1 and 3 during this period.
The project includes completion of Changi Airport’s fifth terminal, the Changi East Industrial Zone and supporting facilities by the early 2030s, and to have a three-runway system in place by the mid-2020s.
Terminal 5 is a key component of the Changi East project and is expected to initially handle 50 million passengers per year, a number that is eventually expected to increase to 70 million.
