Monday, September 03, 2007

The construction of a second runway at the Chennai airport will begin by January 2008.
An investment of Rs.2,700 crore will be allocated for the expansion work. Of this, Rs.1,000 crore has been earmarked for the runway and the remaining for constructing the terminal building.

In August 2007, the Airports Authority of India officials had sent the Land Plan Schedule to the Kacheepuram district administration for starting the land acquisition process. A taxiway will be created to connect the second runway and the parallel runway. Work on the runway is scheduled for completion within 24 months from the date of commencement.
