Taipei, Aug. 23 (CNA) Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport’s second terminal will be closed two years for renovation after the new Terminal 3 comes into service in 2021, said Tseng Dar-jen (曾大仁), chairman of Taoyuan International Airport Corp. on Wednesday.
The airport operator decided to overhaul Terminal 2’s aging power and water supply systems to prevent further problems that could affect the terminal’s operations after two power outages at the terminal in 2014 and 2016, respectively, according to Tseng.
The renovation will focus on replacing electrical wiring, water pipes and the air conditioning system, and the work is expected to take two years to complete, Tseng said in an interview with CNA. [FULL STORY]
