Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed inspected progress at the Bishoftu International Airport project and described it as Ethiopia's largest infrastructure effort to date.
Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed inspected the construction progress of the Bishoftu International Airport project. He called it the largest in Ethiopia's history and the biggest on the African continent in terms of resources and machinery involved.
More than eight thousand workers and up to four thousand machines and vehicles operate around the clock within a thirty kilometre radius. The site functions like a small city, consuming over six hundred and fifty thousand litres of fuel daily.
The Prime Minister noted that modern systems using control centres, dashboards and drone technology now manage vehicle movements. He recalled initial doubts about the project's feasibility and affirmed that high monitoring will ensure completion on schedule.
