Airport Upgrade Complete!

The Mount Gambier Regional Airport Upgrade is now complete, on time and on budget!

Council are proud to announce that Stage 2 of the $6.2M terminal is now complete, a month ahead of schedule.

Stage 2 works consisted of the two main departure lounges, departure ramps and access airside, amenities, carpet & painting as well as outside works such as landscaping and signage. With its completion, the Mount Gambier Regional Airport is now fully open to the public and passengers will be able to enjoy the new layout and design which has improved passenger flow and includes more useable public spaces.

While the most visible part to the Airport upgrade has been to the Terminal, there have been three additional components to the overall $9.2M upgrade including:

  • 120m extension to the main runway to service larger aircraft.
  • A new heavy aircraft apron to house a larger contingent of fire bombers and other heavy aircraft.
  • Full electrical upgrade to entire Airport precinct.

The upgraded facilities make for a more welcoming experience for those visiting our region and will service the needs of our community long into the future.
