The Turks and Caicos Islands government is advancing a national airport infrastructure programme valued at more than US$500 million, according to a statement delivered by Infrastructure Minister Arlington Musgrove in the House of Parliament on September 23, 2026. The initiative spans network improvements from Providenciales to Salt Cay alongside ongoing seaport projects.
The Turks and Caicos Islands Airports Authority is developing an interim terminal at Howard Hamilton International Airport in Providenciales to improve border clearance within 18 months. Simultaneously, planners are finalizing a business case for a full airport redevelopment capable of handling up to 3 million passengers annually. Meanwhile, construction of a second berth at South Dock Port remains on schedule to accommodate four vessels once finished. The South Caicos port building is also progressing ahead of schedule.
Several infrastructure milestones are approaching. The South Dock Port’s second berth is scheduled for completion by December 2026, while the South Caicos port building should finish by Christmas. Authorities expect to issue tenders soon for a national radar project and North Caicos runway work, with procurement for Clifford Gardiner Airport redevelopment slated for the first quarter of the 2027/28 financial year. Additionally, crews plan to finish a boardwalk at Bellefield Landing before the fifth annual Kew Day Festival.
