Laguindingan International Airport at Misamis Oriental
The airport project is implemented by the Philippine Government through the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC). Once completed, the airport project shall be turned-over to the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP).
The approved cost of the airport project is US$ 167.09 Million or PhP 7.853 Billion. The approved cost was duly approved by the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) Board on 30 August 2007. Plans for the airport have existed since 1991, but have been stymied by land acquisition and financing problems. Although the Philippine government has signed a US $25 million soft loan agreement with the South Korean government through its Economic Development Cooperation Fund, there has been difficulty in raising counterpart funding for acquisition of the estimated 300 hectares of land eventually required by the airport complex.
The Laguindingan Airport Development Project (LADP) was inaugurated on January 10, 2006 with groundbreaking ceremonies presided by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, who advocated the idea of an International airport in the Cagayan de Oro-Iligan Corridor.
By July 2007, the construction of the 4.4 kilometer four-lane access road had been undertaken by the Davao City - based V. Lao Construction Co.. The four-lane access road is designed to connect the new airport to the national road (Iligan-Cagayan de Oro-Butuan Road).
By early 2008, the start of grading of the airport site area. It is headed by the Department of Transportation and Communications and its foreign and local consultants, South Korea - based Yooshin Engineering Corporation and Ortigas, Pasig - based SCHEMA Konsult, Inc. respectively, and Hanjin Heavy Industries and Construction Co., LTD. as the general contractor of the project.
As of January 2012, it is 90.90% on progress.
It was learned that the actual accomplishment, to date, is already 80.43 percent in two of its major components. It was also learned that when fully operational, Mindanao’s new international airport is expected to cater to the increasing demand of air passengers and cargoes, and expected to boost the economic activities of the Cagayan-Iligan Corridor (CIC), and the Northern Mindanao Region.
The Laguindingan Int’l Airport will primarily replace the existing Lumbia Airport in Cagayan de Oro, but is also expected to replace Balo-i Airport in in Ditucalan, Lanao del Norte. It is a flagship project of the Cagayan de Oro-Iligan Corridor special development project, which covers both the cities of Iligan and Cagayan de Oro, as well as five coastal towns in Lanao del Norte and the 14 towns of Misamis Oriental’s first congressional district.
