SRV unit director Ossi Inkilä said: “The whole extension and alteration project at Terminal 2 of Helsinki Airport is an extremely interesting construction project for us, as it is a major hub for international air traffic.
“It has been wonderful to be involved in implementing this cooperative project under an alliance model. The first project milestone was reached in Autumn 2020 when a nine-storey parking garage for 1,800 cars was completed.”
The total value of the agreement for the renovation project is $31.7m (€27m), of which SRV’s share constitutes $30.6m (€26m).
Covering a 35,000m² area, the renovation work is part of the terminal extension at Helsinki-Vantaa Airport and will enhance the existing departure and arrival halls. They will be integrated into the gate area and centralised baggage claim hall.
