Bouygues team to double capacity of Cyprus airports
18 June 2025
A consortium led by Bouygues Bâtiment International and including local firm Iacovou Brothers has won a €170m design-build contract for the phase 2 extensions of Larnaka and Pafos airports in the Republic of Cyprus.
Bouygues’ share of the contract awarded by the airports’ concession holder Hermes Airports is €119m.
Hermes Airports has also selected a consortium of US-based Hill International and Salfo & Associates to provide engineering and construction oversight.
Phase 2 will will nearly double both airports’ capacity, with the bigger Larnaka’s set to rise from 7.5 million passengers a year now to 12.4 million, and Pafos’ to rise from 2.7 million now to 5 million.
Bouygues said the work at Larnaka will take 30 months to complete and 27 months at Pafos.
At Larnaka, the consortium will build a three-storey extension to the existing terminal to house more security checkpoints and retail and restaurant areas.
The main terminal will also get a new pier with walk-in boarding and arrival gates, and new aircraft parking spaces.
Pafos will also get an expanded terminal with increased capacity for border control, security and baggage delivery functions, redesigned commercial areas, and a longer southern taxiway.
“This project marks a new stage for Hermes Airports in the development of Larnaka and Pafos airports, which we already completed in 2009,” said Pierre-Eric Saint-André, deputy chief executive of Bouygues Construction.
