Ahmedabad Airport Expansion Advances


Ahmedabad?s Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport (SVPI) is undergoing a significant expansion to meet the growing passenger demand. Managed by the Adani Group, the airport plans to enhance its capacity from 8 million to 20 million passengers annually by 2025-26. This ambitious project includes the construction of a new integrated terminal and upgrades to the existing facilities.

In the current financial year, SVPI is projected to handle around 12 million passengers, highlighting the urgent need for expansion. The planned upgrades aim to address this surge, ensuring the infrastructure can accommodate the increasing passenger volume. Key developments involve expanding the airside and terminal areas, which are crucial to supporting the projected growth.

Already, several initiatives have been executed as part of this comprehensive upgrade strategy. The enhancements are not only focused on increasing capacity but also improving passenger experience with modern facilities and streamlined operations. The ongoing works reflect SVPI's commitment to evolving into a major aviation hub, catering to both domestic and international travellers.

This development comes at a crucial time as the airport looks to support the region?s economic growth and connectivity. The upgraded facilities will bolster Ahmedabad's position as a significant node in India's aviation network, aligning with the broader goals of infrastructure development under the Adani Group?s stewardship.
