Purandar Airport is being built to improve air travel in Maharashtra, but there are some big problems with getting to the airport. To fix these problems, around Rs636.84 crore is needed to build 61 kilometers of important roads. The airport needs good transport links, like metro trains, special buses, and feeder routes, to help people get to and from the airport easily.
One big issue is that seven villages don’t want the airport and are stopping the land from being used for roads. Because of this, there are delays in building the roads that are important for the airport to work properly. This might push back the airport’s opening date to 2029. The people in charge need to solve these problems while making sure local communities are treated fairly and don’t face too much disturbance.
The success of Purandar Airport will depend a lot on how easy it’s for people to reach it. Experts say that the basic roads and transport systems need to be ready in three years, before the airport opens. This planning will affect how many people choose to use the airport and if it can be successful compared to other airports like Lohegaon and Navi Mumbai.
It’s important to have a good plan for connecting the airport to other transport options. The Rs636.84 crore investment shows how much work is needed, not just for main roads but also for smaller roads and public transport links. This will help passengers travel smoothly in the area.
The people in charge must act quickly to solve the land issues and also build the important roads. If they do this well, your experience as a passenger will be much better. The focus should be on adding metro services, special buses, and good feeder networks.
In the end, how well the airport connects to transport options will decide how important it’s for air travel in Maharashtra. If everything is ready by 2029, it can help meet the growing travel needs of the region.
