The Cancun Airport continues its aggresive investment into its installations and infrastructure preparing for the future
The Federal government and private companies alike have been investing into Mexico`s infrastructure in preparation for the projected inflow of tourism and visitors into high tourist destinations such as Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and Tulum As I arrived to the terminals two weeks ago, I was amazed at how fast this project was being constructed The project consists of a second runway being located on the north side of the present runways The location of this runway will allow for simultaneous take offs and landings which will increase the overall capacity
The undergoing project includes a new air tower and a bridge that will connect one runway to the other allowing for the jets to taxi to terminals one, two, and three The airtower will be over 100 meters in height which will place it as the highest tower in Latin America and one of the top 20 of the world The bridge will expand over 64 meters in length with a width of 60 meters allowing for the largest of Airbuses to cross with safety and efficiency.
The project will have a cost of roughly 67 million dollars Is this expansion of the Cancun Airport a sign of a cancellation of the Tulum airport that has made headlines over the past 4 years Alejandro Chacon Subsecretary of the Communications and Transportation Department of Mexico assures that by the third quarter of 2008, plans continue and bids will be taken on the Tulum Airport
Two international airports to support the Riviera Maya, Cancun, Playa del Carmen regions What happens to the Playa del Carmen real estate and Cancun Real estate markets with all of this noise and air traffic activities all around Do you think the real estate markets will go up in price along with all of the new jets and airlines being introduced into the regionIt sure does point in that way.
