Seven Sites Proposed for Bengaluru Airport

Bengaluru is exploring seven potential locations for its second airport, aiming to address the city?s growing aviation needs and alleviate congestion at Kempegowda International Airport. The proposed sites are being evaluated based on various factors including accessibility, environmental impact, and feasibility.

The new airport is a significant development in response to the increasing passenger traffic and cargo volumes at Bengaluru's existing airport, which has reached capacity limits. The second airport will play a crucial role in supporting the city?s economic growth, enhancing connectivity, and providing an alternative for air travel.

The selection process involves a comprehensive assessment of each proposed location to ensure that the chosen site will effectively meet the future demands of the aviation sector. This includes considerations for infrastructure development, environmental sustainability, and integration with existing transportation networks.

The Karnataka government, along with airport authorities, is prioritizing the identification of the optimal site to ensure timely completion of the project. The new airport is expected to bolster Bengaluru?s position as a major aviation hub in the region and support its burgeoning status as a global technology and business center.

The establishment of a second airport aligns with broader efforts to expand and modernize Bengaluru?s infrastructure to accommodate its rapid growth and increasing transportation requirements.
