The company that won the contract is China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC),
the same company that is building the Ethiopia-Djibouti railway.
Construction will be starting in September, and is expected to end in March. Only a runway is needed, the terminal is already built.
It will be a code 4C runway, which will allow large jets to land in Bosaso.
It will also save us the embarrassment of going to Mogadishu or Hargeisa, and then taking a connecting flight
All in all, Bosaso is set for some serious growth in the coming years.
The funding of the Garowe airport is already secure, and a tender process will begin soon.
