The Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Aviation has announced two major infrastructure development projects aimed at enhancing Sri Lanka’s aviation sector.
The first project invites proposals for a feasibility study on the expansion of Jaffna International Airport (JIA) at Palaly. Reputed airport consultancy firms that meet specific criteria are encouraged to submit proposals. A pre-proposal conference and site visit are scheduled for January 8, 2025, at JIA. Proposals must be submitted by 2:00 p.m. on January 29, 2025.
In a separate initiative, bids are now open for the completion of the Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA) Development Project Phase II Stage 2, Package A1. This project includes the construction of the main terminal building, piers, and related infrastructure. Originally halted in 2022 due to economic challenges, the project will now utilize materials previously procured. Bidders must submit their proposals by 2:00 p.m. on March 18, 2025.
