If traffic develops as forecasted, a third phase will be executed, consisting of an extension of the terminal building and the construction of a full parallel taxiway system.
Taxiway System
The development of the Taxiway system will be based on the increase in traffic movements. Based on forecast models it is anticipated that a full parallel taxiway is required. However, before any construction takes place, a number of airport facilities, including airport maintenance, the meteorological station and the fire and rescue station will have to be relocated. These facilities will be relocated along the new parallel taxiway on terrain that will be reclaimed as part of this development stage.
To realize these projects further land reclamation in the Simpson Bay Lagoon of approximately 227.000 m2 will be required.
With these plans Princess Juliana International Airport is well underway to meet the demands of a growing tourist economy.
