Jewar Airport: The Latest Updates You Should Know

The much-awaited Noida International Airport, also called Jewar Airport, is going to change how people travel in India. While it was first planned to open in September 2024, the Jewar Airport opening date is now set for April 17, 2025, when both domestic and international flights will begin. This big project will eventually become Asia's largest airport and the world's fourth-largest.

Current Development and Construction Progress

The Jewar Airport construction status is moving forward well since Prime Minister Narendra Modi started the project on November 25, 2021. Though there were some delays due to material shortages, work is now proceeding smoothly. The Noida International Authority Limited (NIAL) is managing the project.

Strategic Location and Infrastructure Development

Here are the key details about Jewar Airport location and infrastructure:

Phased Implementation and Technical Specifications

The Jewar Airport Noida will grow in four well-planned stages. Here's what each phase will bring:

• Phase 1: The first stage will deliver Terminal 1, a modern building covering 90,000 square meters - about the size of 12 football fields. This phase includes a special runway that works even in fog, paths for planes to move around (taxiways), a control tower, cargo areas, and connections to metro and fast trains for easy access.
• Phase 2: As more people start using the airport, a second terminal building (Terminal 2) will be built. Along with this, another runway will be added so more planes can take off and land at the same time.
• Phase 3: The third stage brings Terminal 3, an even larger building at 160,000 square meters. The airport will add quick-exit routes for planes (like express lanes on a highway), space for 37 more planes to park, and special pathways that can handle the largest passenger planes in the world.
• Phase 4: In the final stage, Jewar International Airport will get Terminal 4, matching Terminal 3's size. The cargo area will grow considerably (to 150,000 square meters) for handling more goods, space for 25 more planes to park, and more quick-exit routes for aircraft.

Impact on Real Estate and Regional Development

The Noida International Airport is already making the nearby areas more valuable. Property prices in Jewar have gone up a lot - reaching Rs 2,000 per square foot in October 2024, which is 90% more than five years ago. Many new housing projects are coming up, and more jobs are being created in the area, making it attractive for people to invest here.

The Final Word

As the third airport in the Delhi NCR region, Jewar Airport is more than just a place for planes to land and take off - it's going to change the whole area's economy. Under NIAL's guidance and with international experts helping, this airport will not only make air travel better but also help develop the surrounding areas and create investment opportunities.
