2005 target for €130m airport plan

AER Rianta expects that work on a €130 million facelift of Cork Airport will take two years to complete.

Transport Minister Seamus Brennan said the company’s aim would be to have the terminal, a main feature of the project, ready for Cork’s year as European city of culture in 2005.

Mr Brennan was responding in a written Dáil reply to Cork East Fine Gael TD David Stanton, who sought a progress report on the development.
