The twin tunnel will go under the Cross Runway and four taxiways, connecting the remote West Apron to the Eastern Campus, where most airport services are located.
It will provide a dedicated route for cargo vehicles, fuel bowsers, tugs, loaders, steps and catering trucks.
The twin design will allow one lane to stay open in the event of maintenance or an incident.
The scope of work includes reconfiguring 23,700-sq-m of airport infrastructure.
Denmark’s Ramboll will be the NEC4 Project Manager. It describes the cut-and-cover project as “open-heart surgery in a live environment”.
“This underpass is about keeping people safe and keeping the airport moving,” said Kenny Jacobs, DAA’s chief executive.
“It’s a critical piece of infrastructure that’ll make a big difference – cutting travel times, boosting efficiency, and future-proofing the place as we grow. It’s the right project, at the right time, with the right team to deliver it.”
Daa says the underpass will let the airport grow in capacity to 40 million passengers a year.
