SANY rollers at work on one of Bhutan’s major infrastructure projects.
In its report published on 29 April 2026, Bhutan Broadcasting Service (BBS) highlighted progress on the earthworks at Gelephu International Airport. BBS reported that around 65 per cent of the earthworks had been completed at the time, with compaction rollers working alongside excavators, graders and other machinery to prepare the ground.
The photograph accompanying the report shows rollers working across the airport site. Compaction is an essential part of preparing a stable base for subsequent construction.
Project progress figures reflect the BBS report dated 29 April 2026.
