balinews In addition to Ngurah Rai International Aiport in Denpasar, Bali will be home to a floating international airport that will be constructed on a beach off Kubutambahan in Buleleng. Tribunnews.com reported on Thursday that a Canadian investor had presented the airport construction master plan to the regent of Buleleng on Wednesday. I Made Mangku, who spoke on behalf of the Canadian investor, said that according to plan, the airport would be constructed on 1,400 hectares of reclaimed water area on the beach. He added that the airport would have two runways. A 125-meter bridge will be also constructed to connect the airport to the mainland. “According to the master plan, part of the beach will be reclaimed but will not be converted into an island and water will continue to float under the airport. Construction will be supported by concrete piles,” he said. Bali to build floating airport | The Jakarta Post
mugwump Gee Whiz and Wow! Does this happen before or after the "Round the island railroad"? Sorry, but can't write more now because a crocodile has just invaded my septic system and I can only defend myself with my special atomic ray gun.
davita Methinks they've been a bit premature in announcing this project because, so far, the dolphins have not been consulted....:indecisiveness: A floating runway....hahaha...that Lion Air pilot, who missed the runway at Ngurah Rai, would have had an excuse if landing there...."The runway moved just as I was crossing the threshold" I can hear him cry.:icon_e_biggrin:
Markit They can then dock it at the international cruise ship port they almost finished here at Tanah Ampo in Karangasem.
davita Aghh! Just noticed the project is being proposed by a Canadian...have Indonesians forgotten the last Canadian selling snake oil in Kalimantan.....:devilish::icon_evil::greedy_dollars:Bre-X - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
