Construction work on the runway of Noida International Airport in Jewar is nearly 70% complete, and the target for completion is February-March 2024. SP Goyal, Additional Chief Secretary to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Civil Aviation Department, had visited the site on to inspect the ongoing work.

Christoph Schnellmann, CEO of Yamuna International Airport, the airport's developer, stated that approximately 7,200 workers are currently working at the site. Additionally, NHAI officials confirmed that a road is being constructed to connect the airport to the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, and it will be completed on time. They also highlighted that 15 million safe work hours have been completed during the airport's construction. During Goyal's visit, Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority CEO Dr. Arun Vir Singh, YIAPL CEO Schnellmann, and District Magistrate Manish Verma, among others, were present.
