Operations on the upcoming Noida International Airport in Jewar might start in the coming two three months with 75% construction work now over, say officials.
“The pivotal Air Traffic Control (ATC) infrastructure is also in place. From July onwards, the airport will witness the full functioning of two state-of-the-art radars signaling a significant enhancement of the airport’s operational capability. Initially, this advancement is expected to allow the scheduling of 50 flights a day,” the Member of Legislative Assembly from Jewar Dhirendra Singh told media.
The Noida airport, the second largest in Asia and the fourth largest in the world, is scheduled to open to the public in September 2024 with one terminal building and one runway. Being developed across an area of 1,300 hectare in the first phase, the Noida Airport in this phase will be equipped to handle an annual passenger traffic of 12 million.
“The construction of the terminal building is nearing completion. In July, two radars will be installed, subsequently facilitating radar-assisted flights. The next phase of construction is likely to commence soon,” Singh added.
