He added that the project will be eco-friendly, in support of Ajman Vision 2021, and will support the emirate’s future plans to boost its economy and tourism.
The UAE’s smallest emirate, Ajman is allocating 40 percent of its 2014 budget to increase work on new development, economic and social projects.
Ajman International Airport is expected to handle around one million passengers a year when it is eventually completed. The project was launched in 2008 but stalled as a result of the economic downturn. However tenders for construction of the airport were reportedly issued earlier this year.
