BAC issues tender for security fencing

ManamaBahrain Airport Company (BAC), the operator and managing body of Bahrain International Airport (BIA), yesterday issued a new public tender for security fencing to upgrade the existing airport perimeter fence. 

Dubbed Control Post No. 3 (CP3), the project is aimed at improving the landside and airside boundary security of BIA. 

The improvements will include additional CCTV and lighting, which will be added to the new fence. The enhancements, according to BAC, are necessary to meet the security requirements of the $1.1 billion Airport Modernisation Programme (AMP) currently underway at the airport 

The project is being carried out over two stages in coordination with Airport Police Directorate at BIA, with the first stage being the demolition of old and unsafe buildings and existing fences, which was successfully completed in March last year. The second and final stage is the subject of this tender.

The fencing tender specifies total project duration of 24 weeks. For more information, visit the Bahrain Tender Board website at www.tenderboard.gov.bh .
