The Hong Kong Airport Authority has appointed Maunsell Consultants Asia Limited as lead consultant for the Hong Kong International Airport Master Plan 2030.
This 20-year blueprint will ensure the airport meets growing demand for aviation services and continues to serve the best interests of the community.
Maunsell will lead a team of sub consultants - including cost estimators and environmentalists, and planners specialising in areas such as airfields, terminals, retail facilities and rail networks - to make a comprehensive assessment of the airport's operational requirements and constraints.
The study is expected to be completed within a year.
Airport Authority Chief Executive Officer Stanley Hui said the master plan would update the air-traffic forecasts, capacity requirements, development plans and growth strategies.
The plan would also review and recommend the optimal airport layout and land-use development including the possibility of building a third runway and its supporting infrastructure.
He also said they would carry out a separate consultancy study to assess the environmental impacts and engineering feasibilities of expansion options.
