Wrocław airport to get new terminal and greater capacity

"By the end of 2008, the new terminal should be ready, while its capacity will increase fourfold to 2 million passengers annually," said Zbigniew Sałek, deputy president of Wrocław Airport. The investment will be co-financed by two of the three shareholders of the managing authority. "Construction of the new terminal will cost zł.100-120 million. Local governments will pay half of this amount," said Jarosław Obremski, deputy mayor of Wrocław, one of the shareholders in the company. The whole investment will be much larger and envisages the construction of roads, necessary infrastructure, car parks and a hotel. "We do not know the precise costs of the whole venture. In my opinion it will cost zł.400-500 million, in addition to the terminal," said the deputy president of the port. (Puls Biznesu, pp. 1, 5) M.M.
