Kempegowda International Airport’s master plan, that aims to create infrastructure to handle an estimated 100 million passengers in the near future, was approved by its Board recently.
An automated people mover (train-like capsule) to transport passengers between the terminals will be a new feature. The USD 2 billion plan could be implemented in the next five years, said a communication from the airport operator.
KIA will see a major expansion of the existing two terminals, apart from earmarking space for creating Terminal 3..."The key components of the US $2b expansion over the next five years are Terminal 1 refurbishment, addition of capacity to cater to a further 20 million passengers, and reservation of space for Terminal 3 whenever it is required, to take us beyond 85 to 90 million annual passengers.”
