Overview
The International Terminal Building Baggage Makeup Area Project is in response to the mandated requirement by the Australian Government Department of Home Affairs Aviation and Maritime Security Division to upgrade security screening levels at Australian Airports. These latest security screening requirements involve the installation of new screening equipment, known as Standard 3 technology.
Construction timeline
Staged construction is currently underway behind the scenes in the International Terminal Baggage Area on a steel frame mezzanine that will house our brand new, energy-efficient, best-in-class conveyor system and Standard 3 technology baggage screening equipment. This mezzanine level is being built above the existing baggage system to ensure continued operations and minimise the impact on passengers during construction.
Upgraded Screening Equipment
This project is part of the Australian Government’s Strengthening Aviation Security Initiative, which aligns security screening with global standards. Brisbane Airport is deploying the same technology in the Domestic Terminal and this is part of the single largest airport deployment of Rapiscan Systems in South-East Asia and among one of the largest globally and includes:
- 33 Rapiscan 920CT cabin baggage screening units
- 10 Rapiscan RTT 110 checked baggage and oversize screening units
- 41 Rapiscan 4DX Explosive Trade Detection units
- 33 Rohde & Schwarz Quick Personnel Security Body Scanners.
