Accra: The Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL) will close the Terminal Three car park at the Accra International Airport starting from July 20 to facilitate its redevelopment.
According to Ghana News Agency, the closure is to enable the construction of a seven-storey multi-purpose car park and airport hotel complex. During the project, an alternative parking facility will be available for airport users. GACL announced in a statement that the redevelopment is part of efforts to expand airport infrastructure and improve services at the country's main international gateway.
The company has completed the Terminal Three Car Park Annex to ensure uninterrupted parking services during the construction phase. This facility can accommodate more than 600 vehicles. Parking attendants will be deployed to direct motorists and other airport users to and from the annex.
GACL has implemented measures to maintain smooth traffic flow and minimize inconvenience to passengers, visitors, and other airport users during the transition. The company has appealed to motorists to cooperate with officials, comply with directions from parking attendants, and allow additional travel time when traveling to the airport.
The statement highlighted that the seven-storey development will provide additional parking capacity and incorporate an airport hotel to enhance passenger convenience. This project is part of GACL's broader infrastructure development program aimed at improving facilities at the Accra International Airport.
GACL reaffirmed its commitment to providing safe, efficient, and customer-focused airport services, pledging to continue updating the public on the project's progress.
