(JUBA) – The vehicle parking expansion project at Juba International Airport has reached an important stage as engineers begin marking the upgraded parking area. The work is being carried out under the supervision of the South Sudan Civil Aviation Authority, which aims to improve the airport’s capacity and overall passenger experience.
The marking stage sets out the final layout of the parking space, including the organisation of traffic flow and parking slots. According to officials, this step is essential for ensuring that the expanded area meets international standards for safety, accessibility, and ease of use.
Clear markings are expected to reduce congestion, improve vehicle navigation, and make it easier for passengers, airport staff, and service vehicles to move through the area. The authority believes the improved layout will help support smoother operations, especially during busy travel periods.
The project is one of several infrastructure upgrades being carried out at Juba International Airport as part of broader plans to modernise the country’s main air transport hub. The South Sudan Civil Aviation Authority says these improvements are meant to create a safer and more reliable airport environment while supporting the country’s wider transport development goals.
Officials say the parking expansion will help increase convenience for travellers and strengthen the image of the airport as South Sudan continues to improve its aviation sector. The authority added that it remains committed to further reforms and investments aimed at improving airport operations and supporting economic growth.
