New terminal for Mangere?
PA Auckland A new international passenger terminal may be built at Mangere Airport when the domestic terminal is replaced. This proposal was one of three options put before the Auckland Regional Authority airport committee. The plan would mean converting the international terminal for domestic use and building a new one alongside it. The terminal improvements were outlined in a report to the committee from the airport manager, Mr Wayne McDonald.
It said the domestic terminal had the capacity to serve Auckland throughout the 1980 s, but advised mem-
bers that work on developing the airport works to the tendering stage should be undertaken immediately. The first step, said the report, was to develop a permanent terminal concept from the options and obtain approval in principle from the Ministry of Transport and airlines for the. proposal. Mr J. L. King, the airport committee chairman, said that the international terminal was causing few problems, but said there was a lack of space on the ground floor because of “changing patterns” since it was built. Mr McDonald said the study would be simply a catalyst for further ideas of a permanent airport complex.
