₦4.3Trillion: China Unveils New Mega-Airport, Spans 18 Square Miles (Photos) by Explorers(m): 11:26am On Oct 18, 2017 |
It's destined to become one of the world's biggest transport hubs. So it's perhaps not surprising that Chinese officials were keen to show-off the skeleton of Beijing's new mega-airport - Beijing Daxing International Airport this week. Representatives unveiled the primary structure of its 80billion yuan (£9billion) project on Monday, which boasts 1.6million cubic metres of concrete, 52,000 tonnes of steel and spans 47 square kilometres (18 square miles), including runways. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/travel/travel_news/article-4984476/Beijing-proudly-unveils-mega-airport-open-2019.html 14 Likes 8 Shares

Due to open in October 2019 amid a massive infrastructure drive overseen by President Xi Jinping, it's expected to serve an initial 45million passengers a year. Eventually, that capacity will surpass 100million annual travellers, putting it on par with Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. 'Lined up together there's roughly five kilometre of gates,' said project spokesman Zhu Wenxin. 'It's a shining example of China's national production capacity.' Situated 67km south of Beijing, the airport technically falls in neighbouring Hebei province, though it will eventually constitute its own development zone. 5 Likes 1 Share

The building's impressive design can be seen for miles around. The airport will be connected to Beijing by a high speed train with a top speed of 350km an hour (217mph). 13 Likes 5 Shares
