1 CIVIL AVIATION AUTHORITY INFRASTUCTRE DEVELOPMENT: BOTTLENECKS AND SOLUTIONS IN AVIATION SECTOR by the Presentation to the ICPAU 5 th Economic Director Finance, Civil Aviation Authority, U 20 July

2 Overview Uganda has embarked on an airport development program covering the whole country. The broad plan is in the 20 year Civil Aviation Master Plan (CAMP) tha was launched on 29 th January For Entebbe International Airport (EIA), there is a Capital Improvement Program consisting of two major projects. The Landside Expansion project which involves Improvement of Departures, VIP, Staff Car park and Walkways The Upgrade and Expansion of EIA, funded by China EXIM bank. Development of upcountry Aerodromes Arua, Gulu, Kasese, Tororo Development of Kabaale International Airport

4 Background Africa has experienced air traffic growth in terms of passengers, cargo and aircraft movements. The world`s leading airlines are also increasingly accessing Africa`s air transport market and several of them have acquired new large aircraft like Airbus 380 which have necessitated upgrade of airport infrastructure. There is increased competition amongst airports for the growing air traffic market in Africa as manifested by the various expansion projects in the region. Government has launched a new drive to develop tourism

5 Uganda Aviation Growth Trends Passenger traffic for Entebbe International Airport grew from 446,748 in 2004 to 1.3 million in 2013, representing an average annual growth rate of 12.6% for 9 years. The annual projected growth Passenger traffic from 1.4 Cargo traffic from 55,000 in 2033 is as follows:- million in 2014 to 6.1M in 2033; tonnes in 2014 to 172,000 tonnes Aircraft movements from 43,669 in 2014 to 111,200 in 2033 The growth above require commensurate capacity enhancement in passenger and cargo terminals as well as aircraft movement areas

6 The need for Infrastructure devpt The proposed upgrade and expansion effort is driven by:- the need to reverse facility degradation due to time related effects / wear-and-tear. This is especially the case for pavements; the need to cater for capacity demand due to high growth rates of passengers, cargo and aircraft movements. This is especially the case for the cargo centre, passenger terminal ; the need to keep up to date with the new generation of large aircraf such as the A380 and modern / state-of-the-art CNS (communication navigation and surveillance) technologies; the need to gain competitive advantage in the region and beyond, especially at a time when all countries in the region are undertaking expansion projects.

7 Cargo Entebbe Capacity requirements Cont d the existing cargo buildings are below capacity as they fail to cope with the current annual throughput of 55,000 metric tons. The annual cargo throughput projected for 2033 is 172,000 metric tons. The projected throughput for 2023 is 100,000 metric tonnes Aircraft Movement Areas The last major upgrade for pavements was done in 1996 and the facilities servicee lives have approached the end of the design life (20 years).

8 INFRASTRRUCTURE PROJECT BRIEFS

9 Modification of Departures Scope Construction of Departures Block Strengthening Terminal Building Roof Structure, Creation of additional office space on 3 rd floor; Extending the departures area by removing the existing departures ramp

10 Baggage Handling System Design, Manufacture and installation of a new baggage Handling System By replacing the existing two baggage lines Incorporate in-line screening with 2 x-ray Machines 3 Level security system ( X RAY, SCREENING PERSONNEL, and Explosives Detectors) Check-in counters 22 in Number CCTV Remote Monitoring of the Operations of the system using SCADA Status Completed and operational

11 Components of the proposed upgrade and expansionn project. Phase I ( ) $200m Phase II ( ) $ 125m I.Establishment of a New Cargo 100,000 tons) Center Complex (Capacity of A new cargo terminal with its taxiway and apron, airside and landside access road; II Expansion of the new Cargo Center Complex (Capacity increased to 150,000 tons) I Construction of a New Passenger Terminal Complex (Transportation capacity of 4.5 million passengers annual, 20,000 SM) II Expansion of the Passenger Terminal Complex (Transportation capacity increased to 6 million passengers, 30,000 SM )

12 Components cont d I Strengthening of Existing Runway 17/35 and its Associated Taxiways with an overlay of asphalt concrete II Widening of Existing Runway 17/35 and its Associated Taxiways to meet the requirements for regular Airbus A380 operations I Strengthening and exp II Expansion of Apron1 I Rehabilitation of Apron2 pansion of Apron 1

13 Components cont d Strengthening and Expansion of Apron4 Strengthening of Runway 12/30 and its associated Taxiways Extension of Runway 12/30 and its associated Taxiways Construction of a Ground Car Park Replace the ageing NAVAIDs at Entebbe International Airport

14 Upgrade and Expansion Scope A new cargo terminal with its taxiway and apron, airside and landside access road; The main runway (17/35) will be surfaced and will have a full length parallel taxiway and new lighting. The rehabilitation of the main apron(apron 1) serving the existing and new terminal ; The secondary runway (12/30) and associated taxiways to be rehabilitated; Apron 2 serving VVIP to be rehabilitated and strengthened; Apron 4 serving general aviation and cargo aircraft to be strengthened. A new terminal building adjacent and connected to the existing terminal and with aerobridges;

20 Expected Outcome Increased annual passenger handling capacity from 1.4 to 3.3 million by 2023; Increased annual cargo handling capacity from 55,000 to 100,000 tonnes by 2023, Increased aircraft parking capacity leading to reduced congestion, safety risks, delays; Gaining in competitive advantage for airlines and cargo operators in the region, in turn moving towards achieving hub status; Improved aircraft ground movement efficiency resulting from an extended taxiway A.

21 Status Approved all preliminary Designs Detailed Design of the cargo earthworks enabling the start (95% complete) Detailed design of the cargo drainage works ( construction started and completed) ; Detailed Design of the drainage works on Apron 1 (construction works on-going); Detailed design of the access roads (airside and land side) earthworks on-going; Completed the procurement of the consultant commenced work in May 2017.

22 Upcountry Aerodromes ARUA New terminal building at Arua airport New apron and carpark Acquisition of land GULU Upgrade of Gulu runway Acquisition of land TORORO Acquisition of land * A new special purpose International l airport proposed in Kabaale Hoima.

23 Bottlenecks/Challenges Land /wrangles Entebbe Za Mugula claims on the land MAAIF resistance to vacate from land. Lack of local expertise in construction Industry Delays in Procurement of a supervising consultant procurement due to several administrative reviews. Slow site handover process, due to design review proposals Weather long heavy rains stalled the earth works Funding / Related projects

24 Bottlenecks/Challenges cont d Stakeholder needs and interests Low traffic growth levels Difficult debtors s/ low revenues/ high taxes Interconnectivity with other transport sectors Very low Govt funding allocations for development o upcountry aerodromes

25 SOLUTIONS Land wrangles in court. Govt must plan to make land available for Infrastructure projects Lack of local expertise and materials substituted by expensive foreigners. Need to build local capacity Need to revise procurement laws The upgrade and expansion projects are funded by a Government loan from EXIM bank of China. Need for negotiation skills PPPPs

26 Solutions cont d More Govt effort to drive growth in tourism, oil & other exports in order to increase air traffic and airport revenues Need to revive the National Airline in order to create a hub, sell Uganda abroad and raise air traffic Need to exempt air transport from taxes to facilitate growth and raise National budget allocations for Airports development
