AAI Begins Environmental Clearance and Infrastructure Tenders for Warangal Airport Project

The Airports Authority of India (AAI) has initiated the environmental clearance process for Telangana's proposed second airport in Warangal by appointing a consultant to prepare an Environmental Impact Assessment report and secure approval within six months. The project includes a 2.5-km runway and a modern, centrally air-conditioned domestic terminal covering about 6,800 square metres, designed to handle 850 passengers during peak hours. The terminal will feature advanced passenger facilities and incorporate local cultural elements in its design. Additionally, AAI has launched tenders for geotechnical investigations to support infrastructure development, with compliance monitoring planned for three years post-approval.
