GHD-designed vertiport to launch in Dubai, advancing the future of urban air mobility
GHD, commissioned by Skyports, has delivered the design for Dubai’s inaugural vertiport at Dubai International Airport, a landmark project for the city’s aerial taxi network set to launch by 2026. The facility integrates passenger amenities, eVTOL charging infrastructure and multideck parking into a bold, flexible design that complements Dubai’s advanced transport ecosystem.
By addressing the unique challenges of urban environments, GHD’s work supports the safe and efficient introduction of aerial taxis. Skyports and GHD’s collaboration delivers a thoughtful approach to infrastructure design, offering a practical foundation for the future of urban mobility in Dubai.
We are honoured for the opportunity to take part in this pioneering project that positions Dubai as a global leader in Advanced Air Mobility. The development of the vertiport at Dubai International Airport represents not only an engineering achievement but also a transformative step forward in urban mobility. Working closely with Skyports and the RTA, we remain dedicated to ensure the successful and timely delivery of the project, ensuring we are creating lasting community benefits and a blueprint for aerial transport systems worldwide.”
