AARHUS AIRPORT PLANNING

The planning for Aarhus Airport addressed the expansion of a regional airport north of Aarhus, supporting both domestic and selected international routes.

The scope began with a workshop initiated by the airport owner to review expansion proposals for new gates and border control facilities within the existing terminal, followed by continued consultancy alongside Artelia’s aviation planning work.

The work included scenario development for the expansion of passenger and baggage handling facilities, focusing on future capacity needs and operational flow through spatial and diagrammatic studies.

Additional studies explored expanded service areas and the relocation of existing airport functions east and west of the terminal complex.

The airport serves as a critical connection to the capital city at Copenhagen.

ZESO Architects has executed a series of aviation planning, analysis, and visualization projects since the the office’s aviation activities began in 2013. These projects have been executed for Copenhagen Airport (CPH), Vagar Airport (FAE), Sønderborg Airport (SGD), Sofia Airport (SOF) and Aarhus Airport (AAR). Due to the sensitive nature of the material, it is not possible to share details of the individual projects but as this work is a cornerstone of our aviation consulting it is listed here in brief descriptions.
