CCTV News: As an important transportation hub, the airport is often the first window for a city to display its external image. During this year's Spring Festival holiday, Sanya Phoenix International Airport completed 3,605 flight takeoffs and landings, transporting more than 692,000 passengers, and the single-day passenger throughput set a new record many times.
In order to meet the regional economic and social development, the third phase renovation and expansion project of Sanya Phoenix International Airport, one of the key projects of Hainan Free Trade Port, started construction in May 2024 and is expected to be completed by the end of this year. After the Spring Festival, how is the construction there? Follow the reporter to see.
At 8 a.m., the construction site of Phoenix Airport Phase III terminal was already roaring with machines, and there was a busy and orderly construction scene everywhere. According to the design, the huge steel structure of the terminal building is shaped like a phoenix with wings spreading its wings. The total steel volume is estimated to be about 8,000 tons, and it is composed of splicing and combining more than 20,000 steel components.
The Phoenix Airport Phase III project has a tight construction period, is difficult and has a complex process. It is difficult to meet the construction progress and requirements by relying on traditional construction methods. The project makes full use of advanced technologies such as 5G, cloud computing, and big data to achieve efficient management and precise control of the project.
With advanced technologies such as intelligent construction, the Phoenix Phase III project is accelerating its advancement. As a pioneer project in the construction of the Hainan Free Trade Port Airport Group, after the construction of the project is completed, the total area of the airport terminal will reach 228,000 square meters, which can further meet the needs of Sanya Airport's business volume growth and serve Sanya's tourism and regional economic and social development.
