Airport upgrade project
A new award-winning terminal building at Taupō Airport, designed by local architects Shelter Architects and built by Taupō firm Watts Construction, was formally opened on 9 March 2023.
The opening followed an upgrade to the airport’s carpark, with a new sealed parking facility with more spaces and lighting. In late 2024, work will begin on an extension to the airport apron.
