The first stage of work includes the construction of the runway, taxiway and fence.

The second stage involves the construction of a service and passenger building of the airport, an apron, a command and control tower and a checkpoint, a complex of radio technical support for flights and meteorological support, placement of lighting equipment with low-intensity lights and other facilities.
