Accra International Airport: Seven-storey car park, hotel project to commence in August 2026

President John Dramani Mahama is expected to cut the sod for the construction of a seven-storey multi-purpose car park and airport hotel complex at the Accra International Airport by the end of August 2026.

The project forms part of efforts to expand infrastructure and improve facilities at the country’s main aviation hub.

It follows the relocation of the existing Terminal 3 car park to pave the way for the development, which is expected to be completed within two years.

During a visit to the airport by Parliament’s Committee on Roads and Transportation, the Managing Director of the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL), Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare, said work on the project had already commenced, with the contractor mobilising to site.

“We’ve started this project, we’ve handed over to the contractor and they are mobilising to site now as we speak. They are going to be starting the hoarding off of this site, and at the end of this month, God willing, we would invite His Excellency the President to come and cut sod. Then we will continue the construction and, God willing, in 24 months from now, this project should be up and will be commissioned,” she said.

The development is expected to provide additional parking capacity and hospitality facilities while improving passenger experience and supporting the expansion of airport operations.
