Lishui Airport is a under-construction civil and military dual-use airport being built to serve the city of Lishui in Zhejiang Province, China. The airport project began in 2009, and it received approval from the national government and the Central Military Commission in December 2016.[1]

The construction budget for the airport is CN¥2.64 billion, of which 40% is provided by CAAC, 20% from the National Development and Reform Commission, and 20% from Zhejiang Provincial Government.[1] It is scheduled to open in late 2024.[2]

The logo of Lishui Airport

The name and logo (pictured) of Lishui Airport were selected in a naming competition. The name "Lishui Airport," with no secondary proper name, was selected over other names such as Lishui Chuzhou Airport, Lishui Liancheng Airport, and Lishui Nanshan Airport. The logo was designed by Liu Ketong and selected out of a total of 385 proposals.

Facilities

[edit]

The airport will have a 2,800-metre (9,200 ft) runway (class 4C), a 12,000 square metres (130,000 sq ft) terminal building,[1] and six aircraft parking spots. It is projected to serve 1 million passengers and 4000 tons of cargo annually by 2025.[2]
