On September 23, 2025, Hong Kong International Airport launched the first phase of operations for its expanded Terminal 2 with the opening of The Coach Hall. The brand-new Coach Hall is a covered facility offering 40 parking spaces for limousines, tour buses, as well as cross-boundary and resident coaches. It also features spacious, well-equipped ticket counters and boarding points designed to handle peak crowds.

SYSTRA Hong Kong is proud to provide comprehensive traffic consultancy services to the Hong Kong Airport Authority for the new Terminal 2, from its design phase through to construction

Many years ago, SYSTRA Hong Kong was involved in transportation design for the original Terminal 2. We are now honoured to collaborate once again and conducted thorough sizing assessments to determine the optimal capacity requirements for coach parking, vehicle circulation, and passenger facilities, ensuring the infrastructure could efficiently meet projected demand. Our team then developed detailed layout designs and access control strategies to promote efficient traffic flow, safe manoeuvrings of vehicles, and convenient access for all users.

In addition, our consultancy integrated pedestrian linkages, creating seamless connections between the Coach Hall and airport facilities to enhance convenience and accessibility for passengers. We also proposed interim access and temporary facilities to maintain smooth operations and minimize disruptions during phased construction.

Designed for simplicity, efficiency, and direct passenger and baggage flow, the new terminal will incorporate a state-of-the-art Automated People Mover (APM) system and an advanced Baggage Handling System (BHS) to ensure swift, smooth connections with the Third Runway Passenger Building.

Hong Kong Airport is pressing full steam ahead with the building of a world-class Airport City, SKYTOPIA, expanding its role beyond traditional transportation. Keep following us for more exciting project updates from Hong Kong Airport!

The Study was led by Ir Francis Sootoo, Vice President, Consulting and supported by Edmund Kwok, Director, Traffic Engineering, and his project team.
