CCI buzzs over proposed mini-airport in Adilabad town

The Cement Corporation of India (CCI), calling online bids for the machinery of the defunct cement factory, buzzing over a proposed mini-airport in Adilabad town, and getting approval from the Centre is gaining intensity.

According to CCI, e-tenders can be sent from 5 May to 23 May, and the bids will be opened after 120 days.

The residents believe that if the mini-airport is sanctioned, it will bring down the cement factory. The proposed airport is near the now-defunct cement factory, and the smoke rising from the latter would hide the runway, which will make it difficult for aircraft to take off or land.

Further, the airport would require around 1,550 acres, while the land available is only 369 acres. The land of the cement factory will be utilised for developing the airport.

The government officials will conduct a feasibility survey of Andhra Pradesh for the proposed mini-airport project, and the report has been sent to the government.

After the formation of Telangana, its state government planned to go ahead with the mini-airport project because of the favourable climatic conditions and Adilabad town centrally located, connecting north and south of India.

Constructive Automation

On most construction sites, the rhythm of progress is measured by the clang of steel, the hum of machinery and the sweat of thousands. But increasingly, new sounds are entering the mix: the quiet efficiency of algorithms, the hum of drones overhead, and the precision of robotic arms at work. Behind the concrete and cables, an invisible force is taking hold: data. It is turning blueprints into living simulations, managing fleets of machines, and helping engineers make decisions before a single brick is laid.
