TAV Georgia has presented projects implemented over the past year at Tbilisi International Airport’s aerodrome. The need for infrastructure improvement at the aerodrome arose in response to the increased passenger traffic. In these projects, TAV Georgia invested up to 16 million GEL.
The “E” taxiway was expanded, enabling Tbilisi International Airport to seamlessly receive and service large (wide-body) aircraft. The rehabilitated taxiway meets both national and ICAO standards. In parallel with this work, Georgian Air Navigation (Sakaeronavigatsia) carried out the renewal and installation of visual air navigation aids, such as lights and signs.
Additionally, with TAV Georgia’s investment, additional parking stands for aircraft were constructed at Tbilisi International Airport, and part of the existing stands was rehabilitated.
As part of this project, new parking stands were created for wide-body aircraft with ICAO “F” and “E” codes. Furthermore, the area of Apron #3 was rehabilitated, providing three parking stands for narrow-body aircraft with ICAO “C” code, as well as three helicopter parking stands.
A total area of 100,000 m² of artificial turf was renewed in the aerodrome section.
The company has also purchased new aerodrome maintenance equipment essential for the upkeep and operation of the aerodrome. Additionally, a modernization and expansion project for the airport’s fire-fighting facilities is underway. TAV Georgia has acquired a brand-new, fast-response fire truck, modified based on the European brand RENAULT to meet ICAO standards.
TAV Georgia has been operating in Georgia for 20 years. During this period, the company’s total investment in Georgia has exceeded 227 million USD as of today
