As part of the ongoing Terminal 1 expansion
project,the Bangalore International Airport (BIA) is shifting the
approach roads and changing the parking arrangements from Tuesday.
The current approach roads will be closed from 12 noon on Tuesday and traffic will be diverted to two new roads,which will use the central walkway for entry and exit to the terminal building.The new kerbs connecting to the terminal building will have covered walkways.The P4 (the 10-minute free parking) and P5 (premium parking) spaces will also be closed.
According to BIAL sources,the new arrangements have been made to facilitate the construction of the roof structure and overhead canopy of the expanded terminal building.The overhead canopies will extend over 40 metres in front of the roof of the present terminal,providing shelter to passengers both in the inner and outer lanes.
The safety and comfort of airport users is BIAs priority.Enhanced presence of airport staff in the affected areas,in addition to well-placed signage will ensure that passengers are not inconvenienced and are directed to the terminal building.We urge passengers to stick to marked walkways, said BIA president (operations) Hari Marar.
BIA started the Terminal 1 expansion project in June 2011 and it is scheduled to be operational in early 2013.
