Description
From November 2018 the management of Libreville Airport decided to modernize the Minute Stop zone in front of the terminal and above all to protect passengers from the rain. Thus Taiyo Europe was commissioned for architectural design, engineering, fabrication, delivery and installation of the canopy. The result was impressive: Two opposite canopies linked by two pedestrian crossing covers. A total of 30 Tons of Steel Structure, 1600 m² of PVC Fabric covering as well as the 36 led lamps.
