Réouverture d'une partie du terminal 2E à l'aéroport de Roissy, selon ADP
PARIS (AP) - Une partie du terminal 2E de l'aéroport Roissy-Charles de Gaulle, dont une section s'était effondrée le 23 mai, a rouvert lundi, selon Aéroports de Paris (ADP).
Il s'agit du "corps central où des personnels d'ADP travaillent dans des bureaux", a expliqué mardi une représentante du service de presse. La réouverture a été décidée après des vérifications d'une société d'expertise indépendante concernant la solidité du bâtiment.
Une section du terminal -composé de trois parties- s'était effondrée le 23 mai en début de matinée. L'accident a coûté la vie à quatre personnes.

Which means they have not opened any public areas yet, only offices. I suppose they're waiting for consolidation works to be completed.

The security commission of "Seine Saint Denis", the area in which CDG is located, has approved the partial re-opening of Terminal 2E to the public.
This decision must now be approved by the Préfet, administrative authority of Seine Saint Denis.
If the decision is approved, two of the three buildings making up CDG2E could be re-opened in the second half of August. CDG2E would then manage from 2 to 10 flights a day.

Expanding on Jouy's post:
Reuters
ADP to partially reopen to public damaged air terminal
Thursday August 5, 8:03 am ET
PARIS, Aug 5 (Reuters) - A Paris airport terminal which partially collapsed in May, killing four people, will reopen some sections to passengers in the second half of August, airport authority ADP said on Thursday.
A local government safety commission ruled on Thursday that all the necessary security measures were in place to allow portions of the terminal to reopen, Aeroports de Paris (ADP), the operator of Paris airports, said in a statement.
"This first stage will allow us to host around 10 flights daily and will have a positive initial effect on the functioning of the whole hub, which has been complicated by the transfer of flights previously departing from terminal 2E," it said.
ADP said that for safety and efficiency reasons, passengers would board through the former arrivals lounge and would be taken to airplanes via buses instead of connecting passageways. ...

Officials at the préfet office have confirmed that the opening will be approved, as soon as ADP asks. Air France plans to have a test flight on August, 10th and start 6 daily flights on August 17th. The terminal will handle 2 simultaneous flights at most, while it was designed for 12 or 13 simultaneous flights.
Do you think it will be enough to have a visible effect ? With the holiday flights, CDG has become a mess, and I fear that 10 flights less won't change anything.

If I remember correctly, CDG2E was handling around 50-60 flights per day. So 10 flights, combined with the additional handling areas being prepared in CDG2D, the temporary transfer of some airlines to CDG1 and CDG3, and the additional security checkpoints in CDG2F should ease some of the pressure on the other CDG2 halls, with a significant impact during September.
Hopefully
Some additional information :
- a test flight is scheduled for August 10th, to CMN
- if the test is successful, 4 daily flights to CMN and 2 daily flights to IST could be scheduled out of CDG2E, starting on August 17th

AF flight 1896 to CMN left CDG at 15:58. Passengers checked in at Terminal 2E and were bussed to the aircraft. Of the 93 passengers on the flight, 53 were connecting passengers.
This flight enabled AF and ADP to successfully test the new procedures. AF still wishes to improve some minor details and plans on moving the six daily flights to CMN and IST on August 17th, as scheduled.

A new boarding area should be operational on December 20th, after tests scheduled for December 15th. This new boarding area should be capable of handling, at peak times, 6 departing flights and will handle, in a first phase, 10 to 11 daily flights.
A second boarding area, also capable of handling 6 flights simultaneously, should be operational in mid-July 2005.
With these new boarding areas, CDG 2E should be able to handle 80% of its original capacity for next summer, an average of 4 to 5 million passengers per year.

Any news on whether or not the lounges will be operational?

I do love ADP public relations... such an extensive document, full of fine computer generated images of the new building. It all looks and sounds very impressive, UNTIL you reach the end of the document and see two actual photographs and realise that it is in fact a prefabricated...

So whats the permenant solution? I see mention that this building will be used until the "reopening" of the departure area of 2E. Have they decided if they are going to tear the existing building down or repair it? Any idea of when that could take place?
