The European Investment Bank will lend €270 million to rebuild Boryspil airport’s 50-year-old western runway, the EU bank announced Friday at its Luxembourg headquarters. In addition to replacing the obsolete 3,500 meter long concrete runway, the 20-year loan will go to improving de-icing, airfield lighting, and instrument landing. Looking beyond today’s coronavirus travel restrictions, Prime Minister Shmyhal said in Luxembourg: “The loan signed today for Boryspil International Airport will ensure the development of infrastructure and strengthen the position of the international hub.”
