Limak Holding, a Turkish group with operations in tourism, energy, cement, technology and aviation, on Thursday signed a Public Private Partnership, or PPP, agreement regarding the expansion and operation of Priština International Airport for 20 years. The agreement foresees an investment of 140 million Euros. It will cover a modern, 27.000 square meter terminal building, a 77.000 square meter apron and runway, a new traffic control tower, car park facilities with capacity for 1.750 vehicles and fuel tanks and the refurbishment of airport access roads.
