Terminal 1 to undergo reconstruction post Navi Mumbai airport launch

14 Mar 2024 CW Team

The Adani Group announced their plan to demolish Mumbai airport's Terminal 1 (T1) the following year, shortly after the Navi Mumbai airport becomes operational in March 2025. According to Karan Adani, the Managing Director of Adani Ports, a new terminal will replace T1 approximately three years after construction work commences. Additionally, he mentioned that there are plans to connect Terminal 2 (T2) and the proposed new T1 through an underground tunnel, aiming to facilitate passenger movement.

Karan Adani explained, T1 has certain structural and safety issues. We are collaborating with airlines regarding its successor. We intend to synchronise the renovation of T1 with the opening of the Navi Mumbai airport to ensure minimal disruption to passenger capacity. Once Navi Mumbai is operational, passenger traffic can be redirected there.

During the transition period until the new T1 is operational, the capacity of T2 is expected to increase to accommodate 400.4 million passengers annually (CPA).

Adani Group has decided to demolish Mumbai airport?s T1 next year, citing structural and safety concerns, coinciding with the commencement of operations at the Navi Mumbai airport.

Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport handles approximately 51 million passengers annually (CPA), with T2 managing 40 million CPA and T1 handling the remaining 11 million CPA. Adani Airports plans to manage the absence of T1 from the system by boosting the capacity of CSMIA T2 to 44 million CPA during the interim period. The initial capacity of Navi Mumbai Airport will be 20 million CPA. Consequently, the capacity of T1 will be divided between T2 and Navi Mumbai. Details regarding the cost, capacity, and design of the new T1 are currently being finalized.
