It will bring together Airservices existing aviation fire service with a new air traffic control facility. Airservices will offer a temporary tower service from November 2010 while building works are underway.

The tower will be fitted out with the latest technology and will also include rain water collection for landscape irrigation and vehicle cleaning. The facility is due to be commissioned in mid 2012.
