Work is moving ahead on the redevelopment of Hewanorra International Airport, with Prime Minister Philip J. Pierre confirming that construction of the new control tower, a key component, is now 52 per cent complete and set for completion later this year.
He provided the update during his 2026/2027 Budget presentation on Tuesday
Pierre also gave an update on the terminal building, explaining that an international open tender process was used to procure a contractor.
He said seven bids were received on November 30, 2025. Following a technical evaluation, three firms advanced to the stage of financial bid submissions.
“Financial bids are currently being evaluated, a contractor will then be selected, and construction will begin this year,” the Prime Minister said.

That is half-way? Does not appear to be so on the outside, much less on the inside.
Is this based on the Leaning Tower? Anyone has a plumb line?
