On July 1985 and 1 day, the State Council and the Central Military Commission approved the Hubei Provincial People's Government to locate Wuhan Airport in Tianhe Town, Huangpi County, Wuhan (now huangpi district). 1989 03 17 the state planning commission approved the design task book of Wuhan Tianhe airport, and the investment forecast of the project construction is 340 million yuan. On February 7th, 1990, Comrade Deng Xiaoping wrote the inscription "Wuhan Airport" for the airport. [15]19901216, Wuhan Tianhe airport project officially broke ground. 1September 27, 1994, the first phase of the airport project was completed,1February 28, 1994, and passed the official acceptance by the state. 1April 995 15, the airport was officially opened to traffic, and the transfer from the original Nanhu Airport to Tianhe Airport was realized at the same time. 1998 May 18, Wuhan Tianhe Airport Co., Ltd. was established to manage the air transportation ground service business of Tianhe Airport. In June 2000, Tianhe Airport was designated as an international airport by the Civil Aviation Administration of China. [16] On March 5, 2004, Beijing Capital International Airport Co., Ltd. acquired 5 1% equity of Wuhan Tianhe International Airport Co., Ltd., and Hubei Airport Group Company was established. On February 29th, 2004, 65438+, the second phase of the airport project started. From June 5438 to 10, 2006, the Civil Aviation Administration of China and the Hubei Provincial Government jointly determined Wuhan as the first comprehensive air transport reform pilot in China, and began to build a modern three-dimensional transportation hub in the central region with Wuhan Airport as the core. In April 2008, the T2 terminal of the airport was put into use. There are 4 Tianhe International Airports in Wuhan-in 2009, the passenger throughput of the airport exceeded100000 passengers. On March 6, 2009, China Southern Airlines and Hubei Airport Group Corporation deepened the cooperation agreement and strengthened the construction of Wuhan hub. On March 20 10, the construction project of the third terminal of the airport was successfully approved by the National Development and Reform Commission. On May 9 of the same year, the foundation stone was laid for the third phase of Tianhe Airport. [17] 201012.28, the new international terminal of the airport was officially opened. [9] On June 2011,the reconstruction project of the airport A380 alternate field was completed, and it passed the industry acceptance in August of that year. [1 8] July 2012, the third phase of the airport project was officially started, with a total investment of159.59 million yuan, including the new T3 terminal and airport traffic center,1a second runway with a length of 3,600 meters and a width of 60 meters and two parallel taxiways. [17] 2016 65438+123 October, the second phase expansion project of Airport International Terminal was completed and put into trial operation. [19] On August 2016 18, the second runway of Wuhan Tianhe Airport was officially opened. [20] 20161217, the airport passenger throughput exceeded 20 million passengers. [21] On August 3, 2065438, the t 3 terminal of Wuhan Tianhe International Airport was officially opened.
In 20 16, the passenger throughput of Wuhan Airport ranked second in Central China, but in 20 17, Zhengzhou Xinzheng Airport, which has been chasing after it, surpassed Wuhan Tianhe and Changsha Huanghua in one fell swoop and became the airport with the highest passenger throughput in six central provinces.
As the first city in Central China, Wuhan's airport status is not as high as that of a city. Not only did he fall from the top, but now he lost the runner-up and was attacked by his former younger brother Zhengzhou. The reason for this must be understood by everyone, that is, the carrying capacity of the old airport has not yet reached the standard required by Wuhan's urban volume, and the construction of the airport is a very complicated and huge project. If it is only a little bigger than it is now, there is no need to build another one. But if it is completed, its scale can meet the demand at least 20 years later. Therefore, an airport with stronger carrying capacity, more runways and more seats is very important for Wuhan, and it is also an inevitable prerequisite for regaining the crown of passenger throughput.
According to the latest network big data, there are a total of 83 civil airports/kloc-0, including 39 international airports. In terms of passenger throughput and scale, Wuhan Tianhe International Airport ranks around 13 in the national airports.
Here is a picture, you can clearly see the ranking of China airport scale. Come and find out the ranking of the cities you care about.
Judging from the latest national city rankings, Wuhan ranks eighth in the country. The fact that Wuhan Tianhe International Airport ranks 13 in the country as a national central city, a leading city in central China, a traffic fortress in nine provinces, is hard for many native Hubei compatriots to accept.
"I don't believe that such a large, magnificent and luxurious Wuhan airport is not the first in China, and the worst will not be 13!" Some people say so.
However, this is a fact, and we should keep our eyes open to see the world.
Wuhan is located in the hinterland of central China. With its unique geographical advantages, it is known as the thoroughfare of nine provinces. Under the care of Liu Zhijun, the chief helmsman of Hubei Province, Wuhan has become one of the best railway hubs in China. You can take the high-speed train from Wuhan to "Shangbei Tiannan" in four hours.
From this point of view, as a fast means of transportation, except for international flights and a few remote areas, airplanes are of little significance to Wuhan.
Kunming changshui international airport in the southwest border, Jiangbei International Airport in Chongqing in the southwest hinterland, and Diwobao International Airport in Urumqi in the northwest border are more dependent on airplanes because of the inconvenient railway traffic.
2017 August 3 1 6: 00 am, the t 3 terminal of Wuhan Tianhe International Airport was officially opened. The galaxy was bright and the phoenix danced for nine days, showing the colorful and growing development prospects of Wuhan.
Carrying the national strategic layout, strengthening the function of the central city and realizing the leap-forward development of Wuhan need Wuhan transportation to make great achievements. As a 4F civil international airport, Wuhan Tianhe International Airport is one of the eight regional hub airports in China. The airport is located in Tianhe Town, huangpi district, a vast suburb of Wuhan, 25 kilometers away from the urban area. The surrounding area is empty, which is convenient for the planning and development of airport land and plays an extremely important role in the expansion of Tianhe Airport territory.
At present, many domestic airports are built in urban areas, so it is impossible to expand them. For example, Dalian Zhoushuizi International Airport is located in Ganjingzi District of the city, and there are many surrounding commercial areas and residential areas, so it is impossible to build a large airport. This is a mistake in the layout of the airport. It is said that Dalian is reclaiming land from the sea to build an airport in Jinzhou, a suburb. It is conceivable that the workload will be approved.
The world is surging, China is advancing by leaps and bounds, and all major cities are becoming bigger and stronger, striving for first-class cities. China speed is the speed of high-speed rail, the speed of airplane and the speed of striving to exceed the limit.
I hope every city can get better and better, and I hope the builders of every city can have happiness.
Tianhe airport comprehensive transportation hub conforms to Wuhan comprehensive transportation hub construction and development strategy.
First, Wuhan is cooperating with the National Development and Reform Commission and the Hubei Provincial Government to build a hub demonstration city (project). One of the key tasks is to build a large aviation hub complex of Tianhe Airport. At present, seven modes of transportation have been formed, including aviation and intercity railways, subways, buses, taxis, long-distance passenger transport and private motor vehicles.
Second, Tianhe Airport Hub has been seamlessly connected with Xiaohan Intercity Railway with a design speed of 200 kilometers per hour, and connected with Wuxiang 10 high-speed railway under construction at Xiaogan East Station, which will form a channel connecting Xi and Lanzhou in the northwest and Fuzhou in the southeast.
Thirdly, the Wuhan Railway Hub Plan, which was revised and adopted by Wuhan, plans to introduce the high-speed rail along the Yangtze River into Tianhe Airport, and sets and reserves the conditions for Tianhe North Station and the airport to form a comprehensive hub, which will further strengthen the integration of aviation and high-speed rail.
Fourthly, on the basis of the hub connection of Tianhe Airport through subway, subway and Hankou Station, Wuhan will start the research on the scheme of connecting Wuhan Station by rail in the near future.
Wuhan strives to initially form an international modern comprehensive transportation hub model city with richer connotation, more reasonable layout, more perfect service, more perfect functions, more efficient operation, more convenient connection and more distinctive features, represented by Tianhe Airport large-scale comprehensive hub by 2020.
Wuhan's air passenger transport has not been strong, and it has always been considered that high-speed rail is too developed. The real reasons are that private enterprises are too underdeveloped, the proportion of state-owned enterprises is too large (there are restrictions on reimbursement of state-owned aircraft), the per capita income of cities is not high, the discount on air tickets is low, travel is convenient, and people can get used to consumption.
To tell the truth, it's really not big, and the planning is particularly bad.
First, in terms of passenger flow, it has always been in the top ten, not to mention the high-speed rail, what era, and look at international intercontinental transportation, plus the three central provinces, not to mention the north, Guangzhou and Chengdu.
Second, the airport covers a large area, but you can find the airport map. Planning really sucks. At present, the terminals of mainstream airports are generally in the shape of "big" and "taxi", while Wuhan is shapeless, resulting in the largest area, but there are few parking spaces (few planes can park). Even if the airport is full, there are dozens of planes. Look at many airports where 200 planes can stay overnight. There are also many big airports.
The advantage of Wuhan transportation is that it is located in the regional center, and the distance to any important city in China is relatively close, not particularly far away. It borders Beijing in the north, Shenzhen and Guangzhou in the south, Shanghai and Hangzhou in the east and Chongqing and Chengdu in the west. In order to give full play to this geographical advantage, it is necessary to improve the business environment and continuously increase the freight of people coming and going, so as to give full play to this geographical advantage and further enhance Wuhan's urban competitiveness.
Carrying the national strategic layout, strengthening the function of the central city and realizing the leap-forward development of Wuhan need Wuhan transportation to make great achievements. As a 4F civil international airport, Wuhan Tianhe International Airport is one of the eight regional hub airports in China. The airport is located in Tianhe Town, huangpi district, a vast suburb of Wuhan, 25 kilometers away from the urban area. The surrounding area is empty, which is convenient for the planning and development of airport land and plays an extremely important role in the expansion of Tianhe Airport territory.
Tianhe airport, with small area and unreasonable design.
There can be no big airport in the middle of any big country. In the modern transportation era, unless it is an international tourist distribution center to attract international tourists, mainland talents will consider convenience, speed and cost performance. Besides, airports are usually built outside the airport, and it takes at least 2 to 3 hours to get in and out of the airport, and there is still flight time. Moreover, the punctuality rate of aircraft is low, which is greatly affected by the climate. However, the high-speed rail journey from central China to other major places in China is basically about 5 hours. Do you still think there is construction in central China?
I don't feel this way when I go to Daxing, Beijing.
