OR TAMBO International

Airport has unveiled plans

for a R4,5bn development

project that will see its

Western Precinct acquire new

offices, retail space, hotel

and conference facilities

and additional transit-related

services.

“The Western Precinct

development forms part

of a strategy to expand

our offering and to drive

new sources of growth

for the entire region,”

said OR Tambo gm,

Bongiwe Pityi-Vokwana.

Phase one of seven begins

this month and involves

the construction of three

six-storey office buildings, a

fitness centre, a canteen,

a crèche and corporate

head office for Acsa and

the SACAA. This phase is

scheduled for completion

in 2020, and will create an

estimated 1 100 jobs.

The long-term plan

involves the construction of

a mixed-use development

that consists of a variety

of buildings forming a

boulevard at the international

departures level, housing

various retail stores,

restaurants, cafés and bars.

The development will also

improve the connectivity

from the Gautrain station

to existing hotels and

facilities via pedestrianfriendly connections to

the international terminal

building.
