GESTE Engineering is in charge of the design and construction management for the whole electromechanical and ventilation equipments.
As part of the development of Abu Dhabi's airport infrastructures, a new road tunnel in cut-and-cover will connect the old infrastructures to the new ones by 2017. It will be some 900 m long with a maximum gradient of 2% and will consist of two one-way and two-lane tubes and a technical gallery. It will be used mainly for passengers and freight traffic at the airport and occasionally by service vehicles (when there is no passenger traffic).
GESTE's design and construction management mission covers all the electromechanical and safety equipment of the tunnel: energy, lighting, ventilation, surveillance and fire-fighting installations, signalling, communication and management systems, cables, emergency exits, signage, technical rooms, air conditioning.
