Maun airport expansion on track-Mabeo

The airport, which services Maun and the northern tourism destinations, is expected to continue to receive increased local and international travellers coming to the Okavango Delta and Maun itself. The airport design, according to officials, will enable it to cope with the traffic increase until the year 2030.

This came to light during a tour of the air traffic tower construction -- a component of the expansion project -- by the Minister of Transport and Communications, Tshenolo Mabeo. Addressing the media after the tour, Mabeo said the P85 million expansion of the air traffic tower at the Maun International Airport was on course for completion in January next year.
