Bimini Airport RunwayBHM CO. LTD

Background

The development of Bimini Bay Resort will bring with it significant growth in visitors in the future. Made up of three islands, North Bimini, South Bimini and East Bimini, Bimini is the closest point in the Bahamas to the USA. The airport is situated on the South Island, with Bimini Bay Resort, the Port and the majority of the amenities located on the North Island. Movement between the islands is only possible by boat. To accommodate the anticipated growth in visitors to Bimini, the infrastructure needed significant improvements, including an extension to the existing runway to accommodate larger planes.

Project Description

BHM was appointed as Main Contractor to undertake significant improvements to the airport’s existing airside infrastructure. The project included the extension of the existing runway by 1,000ft, increasing the area of the existing apron by nearly 200% and the construction of a new taxi-way onto the runway to supplement the existing. The whole project required BHM to undertake bulk earthworks, grading and HMA paving.
