McLaughlin & Harvey has secured the design and build contract for a new hangar at Farnborough Airport, UK.

Considered to be the largest infrastructure project at the airport, the work on the hangar will commence in the weeks to come while the airport continues to be fully operational.

McLaughlin & Harvey construction director Douglas McCusker said, “McLaughlin & Harvey is proud to have been selected as design and build partner for the construction of the new hanger facilities. We will draw on our previous experience of working in a live airport environment, to ensure that construction doesn’t impact the day-to-day activities at Farnborough Airport.

“Successful delivery of the project will draw upon our wealth of experience in both the industrial and infrastructure sectors and we look forward to working with the client, design team and our supply chain partners for what is sure to be a flagship development for all involved.”

The airport’s development will increase the hangar space for clients with the building of a further large span portal building, with concrete floors, related airport apron works and hangar doors.

Farnborough Airport CEO Simon Geere said: “We are pleased to announce that we have appointed McLaughlin & Harvey and Gebler Tooth on the development of Domus III, which will further enhance our facilities and operational infrastructure.
