Perth Airport is set to receive an additional runway under the New Runway Project (NRP). The new runway will be up to 3000 metres long and is set to cost $520 million.
The project is said to be integral to “future-proofing” Perth Airport as passenger numbers are expected to increase by another 14.5 million over the next 15 years.
The project is expected to inject “approximately $1.7 billion into the W.A tourism sector and generate 500 construction jobs”.
